Electrical breakdown in thin oxides during bias-temperature ramps

Conference ·
OSTI ID:751183

Electrical breakdown in thin oxides is assessed by a new bias-temperature ramp technique. No significant effect of radiation exposure on breakdown is observed for high quality thermal and nitrided oxides, up to 20 Mrad(SiO{sub 2}).
