Abstract
Hot carrier effects of a buried pMOSFET in the retrograde n-well have been investigated. A new phenomenon, a spill-over effect of avalanche-generated electrons into the bulk, was discovered. This effect is inherent in pMOSFETs fabricated in the n-well with high doping. It is shown that the effect reduces the hot-electron-induced device degradation even with high hot-electron generation
