Aggressive pitch scaling and overlay errors however challenge the integrity of the SiN dielectric between the gate and the local interconnects. In this work we study the reliability of this dielectric. It is found that the current between gate and the contacts is polarity independent and the breakdown voltage shows a strong polarity dependence. While within die good uniformity is observed, due to overlay errors the spacing between the gate and the contact varies across the wafer. This results in large VBD and tBD variability and for an intrinsic TDDB lifetime extrapolation correction for this non-uniformity required.","PeriodicalId":138206,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)","volume":"14 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":"133435421","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}

This paper details our approach and our main results to overcome the failures due to dielectric charging. We introduce a time predictive model for charge accumulation that we use as a design tool for reliability. The key parameters are listed and a new switch design is proposed to reduce the charging: the dielectric materials between the actuation electrodes are removed as much as possible. This dielectric-free design gives remarkable results in terms of dielectric charging sensitivity: the pull-in voltage decreases a little bit at initial times, and remains steady for longer time. The second major challenge, that remains to be considered, deals with the contact reliability. For that purpose, gold and ruthenium contacts have been investigated under several operating conditions. Gold contacts give good results in cold switching conditions whereas ruthenium suffers from surface contamination which increases quickly the contact resistance. In hot switching conditions, both materials are sensitive to material transfer mechanism, the failure rate being proportional to the open circuit voltage. Nevertheless, ruthenium seems more resistant to a material transfer than gold, and offers performances acceptable for some specific applications. A hermetic packaging at wafer level should allow to improve the contact reliability thanks to an efficient management of the surface contamination issue.","PeriodicalId":138206,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)","volume":"19 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":"115138490","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}

Along with this scaling comes, however, a challenging reliability penalty. Therefore, to decrease the turnaround time of experimental gate stacks, we demonstrate a technique to quantitatively evaluate the long-term bias temperature instability (BTI) behavior of gate stacks on capacitors instead of transistors. We prove that this technique yields comparable results as standard extended measure-stress-measure (eMSM) IV-BTI measurements. Subsequently, we demonstrate in such a short turnaround time experiment that we can achieve scavenging in a Gate Last (GL) processing scheme. Finally, by benefitting from our proposed technique, we conclude that our Gate Last stacks are still more susceptible to BTI than our Gate First stacks with similar EOT.","PeriodicalId":138206,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)","volume":"56 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":"129559166","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}
