Neutral electron traps are generated in gate oxide during electrical stress, leading to degradation in the form of stress-induced leakage current (SILC) and eventually resulting in breakdown. SILC is the result of inelastic, trap-assisted tunneling of electrons that originate in the conduction band of the cathode. Deuterium annealing experiments call into question the interfacial hydrogen release model of the trap generation mechanism. A framework for modeling time-to-breakdown is presented. |
