Traditionally, implantable applications have taken a fast-follower approach to silicon adoption, using more mature technologies to reduce risk. While commercial manufacturers, in some circumstances, may be able to trade off lifetime requirements for performance, this is decidedly not the case for implantable use, where 10 to 12 year requirements are typical. On the other hand, hardware and software redundancy solutions employed by high reliability avionics, telecommunications, and servers are difficult to implement in a battery-powered device, where current drain restrictions are severe. This paper discusses some of the reliability challenges faced by implantable device manufacturers as the need to provide more sophisticated therapy and diagnostics requires increasingly advanced technologies.","PeriodicalId":187696,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115269584","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}

The ISPP characteristics for BE-SONOS NAND Flash are studied extensively in this work. Experimentally we find that the ISPP slope is very close to 1 for BE-SONOS capacitors for a wide range of EOT and O1 variations. A theoretical model is developed to prove that ISPP slope~1 is a universal property for any charge-trapping devices, assuming charges are fully captured. However, when the device is integrated in various STI geometries, the ISPP slope is often degraded. This is due to the STI edge effect. Non-uniform injection happens along the channel width and degrades the programming efficiency at higher VT levels. The degradation of trans-conductance (gm) and subthreshold slope (S.S) during programming validates the STI edge effect. We find that through process modifications for the STI edge, the ISPP slope can be improved.","PeriodicalId":187696,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115950921","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}

We found that the presence and number of reservoirs as well as current direction relative to the reservoir led to markedly different electromigration performance in terms of lifetime and distribution shape. That is, in the case of a reservoir by the anode (or electron sink) line-end, lifetimes were similar or slightly better than the In the case of a reservoir by the cathode (or electron source) line-end, lifetimes were extremely longer than the long-line case or even immortal. Further, the distribution of the cathode reservoir structure exhibited a roll-over shape, in which the first fails corresponded to small void sizes and the later fails corresponded to larger void sizes. We believe these observations are related to the differences in stress development during electromigration, which will be constrained at the line-end at which the reservoir is present, and has been verified through simulation. Finally, we propose a method for assigning an equivalent length to these complex short-line configurations which indicates a ldquostrengthrdquo of the short-line benefit which would be equivalent to that of a standard short-line.","PeriodicalId":187696,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125296023","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 was found that the nature of generated traps corresponds to that of pre-existing traps. Namely new traps cannot be generated if there is no seeds traps which can be eliminate by F incorporation. The controlling pre-existing electron traps which work as seeds traps is effective for suppression of degradation. As TDDB and BTI lifetime strongly depends on trap characteristics, such as positions and their levels, the dominant traps concerning the degradations differ for each reliability characteristic, and also depending on stress polarities in FETs.","PeriodicalId":187696,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium","volume":"133 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122885461","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}

We have investigated single-bit (SBU) and multi-cell upset (MCU) rates of SRAM devices built in a 45 nm high-k + metal gate (HK+MG) technology under neutron, proton and heavy-ion radiation. Our data highlight the excellent soft error reliability scaling properties of HK+MG. MCU rates were kept at 10% or less of SBU ones and bit-level SBU rates continue to decrease 2times per technology generation for terrestrial applications. SRAM upset rates in orbit are projected to be 2 to 4 orders of magnitude higher than at sea-level. A dramatic increase in MCU rates relative to SBU is projected for geosynchronous orbits, where direct ionization by heavy-ions dominates. No indication of charge amplification by parasitic bipolar devices has been observed for all investigated radiation environments. The observation that SBU error rates and small MCU error rates are elevated at locations in close proximity to well contacts for high LET values is speculated to be the result of the formation of a funnel between well contacts and sensitive drains.","PeriodicalId":187696,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133207771","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}

They are extremely linear and, if made in standard silicon technology, can be integrated into other applications in the phone. Many efforts have been put in the intrinsic reliability of the RF MEMS capacitive switches. The main failure mechanism is stiction due to dielectric charging. The progress made in RF MEMS processing has shifted the focus towards the package. It is generally accepted that a hermetic package is needed to keep the effect of charging within specification. Since packages are very small (typically 300nl), new hermeticity tests are needed because the leak rate tests are not sensitive enough for these small packages. In this paper we demonstrate the reliability of a capacitive RF MEMS switch package. The product is assembled using a AuSn bonding process in which a Silicon cap wafer is assembled on top of the MEMS die. The package is filled with pure N2 to the desired pressure. Hermeticity is determined by measuring the pressure dependence of the mechanical resonance of the MEMS top electrode. First we will describe the method we have used to determine the pressure inside the cavity and how to apply that to hermeticity testing. Second, we describe how the requirements for the leak rate of the package can be determined. Finally we show with the use of temperature, humidity and high pressure N2 testing that our package fulfills these requirements. Although the method may not be new, the combination of extensive reliability testing and understanding the RF MEMS device using FEM simulations has not been reported before.","PeriodicalId":187696,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133375511","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}
