One possible solution of this problem is the use of SiGe quantum-well devices, which not only offer high mobilities but also superior NBTI reliability compared to conventional silicon transistors. It has been speculated that the latter is due to the energetically higher valence band edge of the SiGe channel with respect to Si, which increases the energetic separation between the defect bands in the high-k gate stack and the channel. We investigate this claim by comparing the behavior of single-defects in nanoscale devices to the averaged behavior of the large number of defects visible in large-area devices. Using detailed TCAD simulations together with the four-state non-radiative multiphonon model we determine the energetic and spatial locations of the traps in the gate stack and confirm that the previously developed picture correctly explains the significant reliability benefits of SiGe channel devices.","PeriodicalId":172129,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127338892","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}

By using this technique, V<sub>TH</sub> shift after a stress and the relaxation information can be collected in one experiment. First of all, a typical forward-reverse gate sweep and frequency-dependent conductance method are used to characterize V<sub>TH</sub> shift and interface state density (D<sub>it</sub>) in fully recessed gate MIS-FETs with two different gate dielectrics (PEALD SiN and ALD Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>), showing that ALD Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> has a smaller V<sub>TH</sub> shift compared with PEALD SiN although the latter has a smaller Dit. Then, an eMSM technique is used to understand the trapping/de-trapping phenomena under stress and relaxation period. The results show a power law dependency of V<sub>TH</sub> shift with respect to the stress time. Furthermore, the voltage dependency of V<sub>TH</sub> shift (7) can be extracted, showing that ALD Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> has a higher 7 compared to PEALD SiN. The physical model is proposed to explain the mechanism for the different voltage dependency. On the other hand, the relaxation data is collected as well, indicating that Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> has a faster relaxation even under a high voltage overdrive stress, which is consistent with physical model since accessibility of defects in Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> are located at energies less favorable for channel carriers, compared to SiN.","PeriodicalId":172129,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124026048","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 test for the realistic assessment of requirements is presented. The difference between this test and the conventional peel test is that the test is conducted in-situ during ageing experiments in the climatic cabinet at realistic operating temperatures. Weights are attached to the backsheet of tested PV mini-modules to test stability of adhesion as devices being aged. This test is designed to identify the weakest interface of the multilayer encapsulation system and investigate the difference between field tests and failures (not) observed in certification testing. A series of samples was prepared under a wide range of lamination conditions. Different failure modes and ageing characteristics were observed. Some samples suffered quick failure of the adhesive bonds in the encapsulation system while others withstood forces of 20g/cm for 1000 hours.

Through extensive use of layered dipole summations, it is shown that the Lorentz factor L tends to increase with thickness.

Higher E<sub>loc</sub> produces more polar-bond distortion (stretching, compressing, bending, etc.) and this leads to a reduction in bond strength.

It is found that the device breakdown exhibits different gate voltage dependence for different surface treatments before the gate dielectric deposition. The device performance is greatly improved by using an in-situ surface plasma treatment. The improved device performance is explained by a reduction of traps at the Al2O3/GaN interface, which finally leads to a reduction in the amount of trapped positive charges and associated with that a reduction of the effective electric field across the gate dielectric when the device is in off-state. Several experimental results support this hypothesis: (1) The recoverable negative threshold voltage shift after reverse gate bias depends on the interface clean before gate dielectric deposition, (2) The reverse bias gate dielectric breakdown voltage is improved by this interface plasma treatment, although the forward bias gate dielectric breakdown voltage is identical.","PeriodicalId":172129,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)","volume":"59 23","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120888895","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}
