It is therefore mandatory to understand the behavior of elementary devices to laser illumination, in order to model and predict the behavior of more complex circuits. This paper characterizes and analyses photoelectric effects induced by static 1064 nm wavelength laser on a 90 nm technology NMOS transistor. Comparisons between photocurrents in short or long channel transistor, or in function of its state (on or off) are presented. Experimental measurements are correlated to Finite Elements Modeling Technology Computer Aided Design (TCAD) analyses, which gives a physical insight of carriers generation and transport in the devices.","PeriodicalId":153805,"journal":{"name":"International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125179164","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 is shown through finite element modelling and experiments that deflection of the beams at multiple locations allows correction for non-ideality of the beams originating from the undercut, anticlastic curvature and stress gradient. This method has the advantage over common indentation-based approaches, in that with a single sample we can simultaneously extract the Young's modulus, residual stress and fracture strength of the film. Additionally, knowledge of the Poisson's ratio is not required for the calculation of the Young's modulus.","PeriodicalId":153805,"journal":{"name":"International Symposium on the Physical and Failure Analysis of Integrated Circuits","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115146654","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}
