The voltage ramping rate during the forming and set-reset process is strongly related to the formation of soft-breakdown (SBD) paths. In this paper, we examined the effect of two different operation methods in RRAM, including sweep and pulse modes. The RTN analysis has been utilized to examine their influences on the SBD paths. For the first time, we found a different behavior of the RTN currents generated by two different modes of operation. Results show that more SBD paths are created during the pulse mode which led to the instability of switched resistance, and induced the erratic bit during the readout of RRAM.
形成和复位过程中的电压上升速率与软击穿(SBD)路径的形成密切相关。在本文中,我们研究了扫描和脉冲两种不同的操作方式对RRAM的影响。RTN分析被用来检验它们对SBD路径的影响。我们首次发现了两种不同操作模式产生的RTN电流的不同行为。结果表明,在脉冲模式下产生了更多的SBD路径,导致开关电阻的不稳定,并导致RRAM读取时的不稳定位。

In this paper, we investigate hot carrier injection (HCI) stress induced self-heating behavior for high-voltage n-type Lateral-Diffused-MOSFET (NLDMOS) multi-finger devices. A NMOS device with more poly fingers, for the first time, is found to suffer more threshold voltage drift (ΔVt) but less linear current drift (ΔIdlin) under HCI stress at high gate and drain voltages. The experiment of monitoring device temperature is carried out and TCAD simulations are performed to investigate the physical mechanisms. The effect of poly gate finger numbers (PGFN) is attributed to higher lattice temperature with more PGFN, resulting in higher electrical field in the channel region and lower electrical field in the drift region. HCI behavior in ΔVt and ΔIdlin for different PGFN devices at various ambient temperatures are verified by TCAD simulation. In addition, the effect of PGFN on AC HCI stress and DC HCI Safe-Operation-Area (SOA) are studied. All the experimental findings can be well explained by the effect of self-heating during HCI stress mode.
本文研究了高压n型横向扩散mosfet (NLDMOS)多指器件的热载流子注入(HCI)应力诱导自热行为。首次发现具有更多多指的NMOS器件在高栅极和漏极电压的HCI应力下遭受更多的阈值电压漂移(ΔVt)但更少的线性电流漂移(ΔIdlin)。进行了器件温度监测实验,并进行了TCAD仿真研究其物理机制。多栅极指数(PGFN)的影响是由于多栅极指数越多,晶格温度越高,通道区电场越大,漂移区电场越小。通过TCAD仿真验证了不同PGFN器件在不同环境温度下在ΔVt和ΔIdlin中的HCI行为。此外,还研究了PGFN对交流HCI应力和直流HCI安全操作区域(SOA)的影响。所有的实验结果都可以用HCI应力模式下的自热效应来解释。

A compact reliability model is reported, which includes both the channel hot carrier (CHC) and the negative bias thermal instability (NBTI) effects in p-MOSFETs. The developed compact NBTI model, which describes both interface-state generation and hole-trapping mechanisms, is further improved by considering additionally the impact of the drain bias Vds. With increased Vds, the NBTI effect is weakened due to the reduction of the vertical gate oxide field, and the CHC effect is enhanced by the increased lateral channel electric field. Therefore, the threshold voltage is observed to decrease in the low Vds regime, and then increases again in the high Vds regime. Such “turn-around” characteristic is correctly modeled using the improved compact NBTI model. Implementation of this reliability model into the surface-potential-based compact model HiSIM enables accurate prediction of the CHC enhanced NBTI degradation for wide ranges of time duration and bias conditions. This allows real-time simulation for the circuit-performance degradation occurring during actual circuit operation.
本文报道了一个紧凑的可靠性模型,该模型同时考虑了p- mosfet中的通道热载流子(CHC)和负偏置热不稳定性(NBTI)效应。所开发的紧凑NBTI模型既描述了界面状态产生机制,也描述了空穴捕获机制,通过考虑漏偏置Vds的影响,进一步改进了该模型。随着Vds的增大,垂直栅氧化场的减小使NBTI效应减弱,而横向沟道电场的增大使CHC效应增强。因此,观察到阈值电压在低Vds状态下降低,然后在高Vds状态下再次升高。利用改进的紧凑NBTI模型对这种“回转”特性进行了正确的建模。将该可靠性模型应用到基于表面电位的紧凑模型HiSIM中,可以在大范围的时间持续时间和偏置条件下准确预测CHC增强的NBTI退化。这允许实时模拟在实际电路运行过程中发生的电路性能下降。

Potential-induced degradation in conventional p-type silicon-based photovoltaic solar cell modules is described as a failure mechanism involving positive ion migration, understood to be primarily Na+, drifting from the glass to the cells in negative-voltage arrays. Acceleration factors for this mechanism are determined for silicon photovoltaic modules by comparing the module power during degradation outdoors to that in accelerated testing at three temperatures and 85% relative humidity. A lognormal analysis is applied to the accelerated lifetime test data considering failure at 80% of the initial module power. Activation energy of 0.73 eV for the rate of failure is determined for the chamber testing at the constant relative humidity, and the probability of module failure at an arbitrary temperature is predicted. Estimation of module power in-situ in the environmental chamber is achieved using dark I-V measurements transformed by superposition. By this means, the power of the degrading module can be semi-continuously determined so that statistical data for multiple modules undergoing potential-induced degradation can be easily and accurately obtained.
在传统的p型硅基光伏太阳能电池组件中,电位诱导的降解被描述为一种涉及正离子迁移的失效机制,主要是Na+,从玻璃漂移到负电压阵列的电池中。通过比较硅光伏组件在户外降解时的功率与在三种温度和85%相对湿度下加速测试时的功率,确定了该机制的加速因子。对数正态分析应用于加速寿命测试数据,考虑在初始模块功率的80%失效。在恒定相对湿度条件下,确定了模组失效率的激活能为0.73 eV,并预测了模组在任意温度下的失效概率。利用叠加变换的暗I-V测量值实现了环境室中模块功率的原位估计。通过这种方法,可以半连续地确定退化模块的功率,从而可以方便、准确地获得多个模块遭受电位诱导退化的统计数据。

Based on the analysis of field customer failure feedback data over years, it is found almost 50% of the chip failure in board-level is EOS (electrical over stress) issue. Hence it is very common chip failure mode. From board-level point of view, EOS can destroy a semiconductor chip in many ways, resulting in observable and different failure attributes. Thus it is really challenging to identify and find the root cause when it happens at board-level. Also, EOS burns up the chip, and can be caused by several additional factors at board level. It makes EOS event become more complex for investigation and analysis. In this paper, from several case studies, we can classify EOS issues are due to “chip undetectable weakness”, “board-level application” or “board environment” and summarized few conclusions for chip EOS issue.
根据对多年来现场客户故障反馈数据的分析,发现几乎50%的板级芯片故障是EOS(电气过度应力)问题。因此它是非常常见的芯片故障模式。从板级的角度来看,EOS可以通过多种方式破坏半导体芯片,导致可观察到的不同故障属性。因此,当它发生在董事会层面时,识别和找到根本原因确实具有挑战性。此外,EOS会烧毁芯片,并且可能由董事会层面的几个其他因素引起。这使得EOS事件的调查和分析变得更加复杂。本文通过几个案例研究,将EOS问题分为“芯片无法检测的弱点”、“板级应用”或“板级环境”,并对芯片EOS问题总结出一些结论。

An array-based Plasma-Induced Damage (PID) characterization circuit with various antenna structures is proposed for efficient collection of massive PID breakdown statistics. The proposed circuit reduces the stress time and test area by a factor proportional to the number of Devices Under Test (DUTs). Measured Weibull statistics from a 12-24 array implemented in 65nm show that DUTs with plate type antennas have a shorter lifetime compared to their fork type counterparts suggesting greater PID effect during the plasma ashing process.
为了有效地收集大量的等离子体击穿统计数据,提出了一种基于阵列的不同天线结构的等离子体诱导损伤(PID)表征电路。所提出的电路通过与被测器件(dut)数量成比例的因素减少了应力时间和测试面积。在65nm实现的12-24阵列中测量的威布尔统计数据表明,与叉型天线相比,带有板型天线的dut寿命更短,这表明在等离子体灰化过程中PID效应更大。

We present for the first time, the effects of SiO2-doping in GeTe-based Phase-Change Memory (PCM) technology. We demonstrate a 50% RESET power reduction correlated with the enhanced thermal and electrical efficiency of the cell by SiO2-doping. Moreover we show the possibility to engineer the threshold voltage (VTH) of the cell at high operating temperature, thanks to the changed crystallization dynamics induced by SiO2 doping into GeTe.

We report the first experimental evidence of discrete threshold-voltage transients on high-density NAND Flash arrays during post-cycling data retention. Proper choice of experimental conditions eliminates the impact of averaging effects and disturbs on the transients, enabling clear detection of single charge emission events from/to the tunnel oxide of sub-30nm NAND Flash cells. A stochastic model for the discrete emission process was developed from experimental data, demonstrating that number fluctuation of charges trapped in the tunnel oxide and the statistical nature of their emission dynamics strongly affect the post-cycling data retention performance of the arrays. These results pave the way for further analyses of NAND Flash reliability, where the behavior of single electrons and defects can be monitored and facilitate detailed assessments of the fundamental scaling challenges arising from the discrete nature of charge trapping/detrapping.

Electromigration (EM) reliability of Cu interconnects for the 28 nm node with Mn doping was studied by investigating the effects of line width and length on void formation kinetics, EM lifetime and statistics. Failure modes and mass transport mechanism responsible for EM degradation of CuMn interconnects were examined. Although immortality was not observed, EM lifetime of short lines was significantly improved together with a reduction in lifetime deviation. This is attributed to the effectiveness of Mn in repairing process defects, particularly for via-related void formation in V1M2 electron flow direction.
通过考察线宽和线长对孔隙形成动力学、电迁移寿命和统计数据的影响,研究了掺杂Mn的28 nm节点铜互连的电迁移可靠性。研究了电磁退化的失效模式和质量输运机制。虽然没有观察到不朽,但短线的EM寿命显着提高,寿命偏差减少。这是由于Mn在修复工艺缺陷方面的有效性,特别是在V1M2电子流方向上与通孔相关的空洞形成。
