Electrical overstress and electrostatic discharge failure in silicon MOS devices

This thesis presents an experimental and theoretical investigation of electrical failure in MOS structures, with a particular emphasis on short-pulse and ESD failure. It begins with an extensive survey of MOS technology, its failure mechanisms and protection schemes. A program of experimental resear...
