---|---|---|
The effects of the substrate voltage are studied in advanced N-MOSFETs with a 3.2nm gate-oxide thickness used for logic applications. Results show that the electronic gate current originate at low voltage from tunneling contributions and from the first-induced second impact ionization mechanisms. The injection efficiency is found to be channel-length dependent through a large increase in the gate-current with the increase in the lateral field (vertical field) and the electron-electron scattering for low energy hot-carriers. Lifetime prediction techniques are compared showing a strong device lifetime reduction with the back bias at V-SB= V-DD independently of the extrapolating model which can be modeled by the measurement of the gate-current and the emission probability.
