The rapid ahneal phenomenon of the radiation induced charge trapping at the silicon sapphire interface was experimentally investigated using a junction FET structure from 10 ?sec through 1 second after an ionizing radiation pulse for various fabrication parameters and bias conditions. The fabrication parameters investigated include type of starting sapphire (Czochralski, ribbon, and gradient furnace), sapphire polish, pre-epitaxial anneal environment (air and hydrogen), and epitaxial growth method (uniform and burst). The "back channel" rapid anneal effect was also characterized as a function of bias applied to the device during the radiation pulse as well as the bias applied during the anneal time. The results show that the rapid anneal time constant is essentially independent of the bias applied during the radiation pulse as well as during the anneal time, although the initial and final values of leakage current are functions of drain bias. The experimental results also show that the rapid anneal time constant is essentially independent of the type of starting sapphire, but is a function of the pre-epitaxial sapphire anneal environment and epitaxial growth method. 相似文献

A detailed study of ionizing radiation effects on SOS devices has been performed with emphasis placed on determining the mechanisms of back-channel leakage current phenomena. Behavior for n-channel transistors fabricated with both wet and dry gate oxides is compared and differences in radiation response are attributed to a larger density of hole traps in the sapphire for dry-oxide devices. It is observed that reduction of radiation-induced leakage current to very near its preirradiation value can be readily accomplished by continuing to irradiate a device under a condition of zero drain bias. Studies with low-energy electrons (6 - 45 keV) from a scanning electron microscope reveal that energy must be deposited in the sapphire in order to increase the leakage current and that energy deposition in the sapphire bulk is unimportant in terms of leakage current production. For the present devices, the region which is effective in producing such current extends into the sapphire a distance on the order of 2 ?m from the Si-Al2O3 interface. If hole traps are spatially distributed, then the dominant mechanism for reducing leakage current is shown to be injection of electrons from Si into Al2O3 where they neutralize trapped holes. A model for radiation-induced production and reduction of leakage current in SOS devices is described. 相似文献

A possible failure mechanism of n-channel MOSFETs exposed to ionizing radiation are leakage currents between source and drain. This leakage begins to occur at relatively low radiation doses, and can seriously degrade the performance of an otherwise hardened CMOS device. In the present paper, we demonstrate by the observation of quantum oscillations in the magnetoresistance that by room temperature irradiation with high energy electrons an inversion layer is generated under the field oxide, which gives rise to leakage currents. Magnetoresistance oscillations may be observed, if in a degenerate electron gas the carrier mobility is sufficiently high to allow quantization of the electron movement in a magnetic field and the thermal energy is much smaller than the cyclotron energy. This oscillatory behaviour of the electrical resistance as a function of a magnetic field - the Shubnikov-de Haas effect - is a valuable tool to investigate the electronic parameters of bulk semiconductors and surface channels. Such experiments not only give firm evidence about the existence of a bypass inversion layer, but also yield information about the carrier density in the radiation induced channel. It turns out that the electrons behave like a two-dimensional free electron gas the density of which is independent of the gate voltage. Moreover, the experiments give knowledge about the influence of trapped charges, caused by the irradiation at the interface. 相似文献

This paper reports the results of experiments designed to optimize the total dose ionizing radiation hardness of CMOS/SOS devices. Type 4007 inverter circuits were fabricated with variations in the process, including wet versus dry gate oxidation. Tolerable values (e. g. < l?A per mil of channel width) of post-radiation n-channel back leakage were obtained only with wet oxides. Threshold shifts of ?1V for the n-channel devices and ?2V for the p-channel devices were obtained after 106 rads (Si) on the best devices fabricated. 相似文献

The effect of size and substrate bias conditions after irradiation on the total ionizing dose response of high voltage devices for flash memory has been investigated. Different sensitivity of transistors with different gate width was observed, which is well known as the radiation induced narrow channel effect. A charge sharing model was used to explain this effect. The negative substrate bias voltage after irradiation showed considerable impact on the parasitic transistor’s response by suppressing leakage current. 相似文献

The permanent ionizing radiation effects resulting from charge trapping in a silicon nitride isolation dielectric has been determined for a total ionizing dose up to 107 rads (Si). Junction FET's, whose active channel region is directly adjacent to the siliconsilicon nitride interface, were used to measure the effects of the radiation induced charge trapping in the Si3N4 isolation dielectric. The JFET saturation current and channel conductance versus junction gate voltage and substrate voltage were characterized as a function of the total ionizing radiation dose. The experimental results on the Si3N4 are compared to results on similar devices with SiO2 dielectric isolation. The ramifications of using the silicon nitride for fabricating radiation hardened dielectrically isolated MIS devices are discussed. 相似文献

Data has been collected that shows the permanent threshold voltage shift occurring in MOS transistors exposed to the same total dose of gamma radiation can be greater in a high dose-rate environment than in a low dose-rate environment. This dose-rate effect is ascribed to a "Photovoltaic" bias generation in the substrate of a device which results in an effective gate bias change (positive for P-channel and negative for N-channel transistors). The bias change ranges from 0 to ±1 volt during the radiation burst. Thus, in a high dose-rate ionizing environment, the permanent gate threshold voltage shift of an MOS device, which is known to be a function of the gate bias during irradiation, will exhibit an indirect dose-rate dependence which is caused by an internal change in instantaneous gate bias. 相似文献

新一代航天器需要使用耐高压、功率损耗低的第3代半导体SiC器件,为了给器件选用和抗辐射设计提供依据,以SiC MOSFET和SiC二极管为对象,进行单粒子效应敏感性分析。重离子试验发现,在较低电压下,重离子会在SiC器件内部产生永久损伤,引起漏电流增加,甚至单粒子烧毁。SiC MOSFET和SiC二极管试验结果类似。试验结果表明SiC器件抗单粒子能力弱,与器件类型关系不大,与SiC材料有关。为了满足空间应用需求,有必要进一步开展SiC器件辐射效应机理、试验方法和器件加固技术等研究。 相似文献

The fast neutron irradiation induced degradation of junction field effect transistors has been studied in detail. A comparison of p-channel to n-channel devices has confirmed reported differences in hole and electron removal rates. The predicted increase of hardness with increasing channel dopant concentration is experimentally demonstrated, although channel dopant grading makes very heavily doped units difficult to attain in practice. Also, a device modification which allows attainment of breakdown voltages higher than those characteristic of the channel doping level is presented and experimentally verified. This modification made possible the construction of devices with breakdown voltages greater than fifty volts, which degraded by only 25% in transconductance at fluences of approximately l-3×1015 neutrons/cm2 (E > 10 kev, Triga). Thus, the technique offers promise in the construction of very radiation resistant devices with wide operating voltage ranges. 相似文献

The fast-neutron-induced degradation of the properties of n-channel GaAs junction field effect transistors (JFET) is estimated and the results are compared with the effects produced in n-and p-channel silicon field effect transistors. The estimated degradation of the maximum transconductance, maximum drain current, pinch-off voltage, and cutoff frequency is based on electrical measurement data taken for fast-neutron-irradiated bulk n-type GaAs samples. It is concluded that n-channel GaAs JFET's should be at least as resistant to fast neutrons as either n-or p-channel Si JFET's. 相似文献

The switching of a four-layer semiconductor device in an ionizing radiation environment is calculated by solving the charge transport equations to determine the motion of the electron and hole distributions and the changes in the electric field distribution throughout a one-dimensional device as a function of time. A discussion of the characteristic device turn-on as a function of the ionizing radiation exposure and external circuit and device parameters is presented. In addition to showing the detailed calculated device behavior, the theoretical and experimental results are compared. 相似文献

Ionizing radiation effects and hardening procedures have been investigated using simple CMOS/SOS circuits fabricated with SiO2 gate insulators. A modified gate oxidation process using steam and HCl has resulted in improved gate oxide hardness -- with threshold voltage shifts of less than two volts up to a total dose of 106 rads(Si). Radiation-induced n-channel leakage currents were reduced by more than two orders of magnitude by using a deep boron ion implant and appropriate process ing techniques. Post-irradiation values of less than 0.5?A/mil have been obtained using this procedure. Studies of charge buildup at the silicon-sapphire interface indicate an effective positive charge in the range of 1011 cm-2 to 1012 cm-2 - peaking at a total dose of about 105 rads (Si). This effective charge decreases for increasing doses above 5×105 rads(Si). The decrease is attributed to radiation-induced interface states. 相似文献
