When integrated with detailed modeling into a uniform approach these methods yield a superior approach to understanding failure mechanisms that arise in modules during extended stress testing or analysis from field testing. These techniques are required to quickly assess and validate new materials and new constructions in module technology. Examples are taken from new module technologies such as monolithic module assembly (MMA) for back contact cell modules as well as the use of new materials such as electrically conductive adhesives (ECA) and new encapsulants.","PeriodicalId":138206,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)","volume":"87 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127015833","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It will be shown that neglecting device self-heating effects during the calculation process can lead to an underestimation of said energies and to non-overlapping Arrhenius plots, when the emission time constants are extracted at different device dissipated power levels. Thanks to the estimation of the mean channel thermal resistance, thermal effects were taken into account by correcting the measured data. Higher activation energy values have then been extracted and a reasonable overlap of the Arrhenius plots was obtained amongst measurements carried out at different dissipated powers. The experimental results are also suggesting a novel method for the extraction of device thermal resistance, which yielded similar results with respect to other experimental techniques.","PeriodicalId":138206,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129299917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A paradigm change in reliability qualification methodology, to aim at understanding the impact of variations on reliability [2-3], is required to ensure that reliability robustness is integrated into the design of the technology to prevent problems from surfacing during product qualification and application. By applying the improved variation control though process Design-For-Reliability (DFR) and engineering optimization methodology as described in Figure 2 and Figure 3, this work aims to establish an effective and efficient method to reduce the infant mortality failure rate of the product, through understanding critical design and process factors and determining the optimal design and process conditions to ensure reliability robustness.","PeriodicalId":138206,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130160873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A prolonged phase of post-BD can ensure we can live with the circuit with moderate performance and error-free operation, even if the soft breakdown (SBD) events occur early. While analysis of post-BD is simple and straightforward for single layer SiO2/SiON stacks, the number of possible scenarios of post-BD increases when analyzing high-κ-interfacial layer (HK-IL) based technology. This is because the sequence of BD (whether HK or IL fails first followed by the other one) and the competition between multiple SBD in one of these layers, dilative wear-out of a single SBD spot and the possibility of a successive localized BD above/below the HK/IL BD percolation spot (with or without metal filamentation) are all possible phenomena that can be classified as post-BD. The likelihood of occurrence of these various possibilities will determine the immunity of the stack to post-BD degradation. We will investigate each of these scenarios in detail in this work in order to provide a comprehensive assessment of post-BD reliability of state-of-the-art technology. Our analysis on a HK:IL = 25:12Å stack supported by electrical, physical and modeling results provides clear evidence that circuit failure at operating conditions can only be due to multiple SBD events within the IL layer and that the HK is very robust and resilient to breakdown.","PeriodicalId":138206,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115787977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
