The failure always occurred after a few months to one year of usage, but all stress methods that have been tried seem unable to accelerate the failure before field usage. The paper describes an experimental investigation into ways of detecting phosphorous particles. Two kinds of phosphorous particles were seen in the device. A broken coating one formed an acid solution pool and caused a spider shaped growth of copper particles. It also formed a shorting path that resulted in the intermittent pin-to-pin short. The large copper particle that coexisted with phosphorous particles is the body of the spider. Soft X-ray can reveal large and medium particles near the failed pin. Focused ion beam (FIB) using passive voltage contrast (PVC) can reveal the spider shape that forms shorting path. EDS mapping provides not only the shorting path but also materials information.","PeriodicalId":320150,"journal":{"name":"2005 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium, 2005.

The radiation response of the CMOS devices was investigated up to an equivalent total gamma dose of 1.0 Mrad(Si). Measurements of the DC current-voltage, low-frequency (1/f) noise, S-parameters, and broadband noise characteristics of the devices were performed before and after irradiation at room temperature. These scaled CMOS devices show a very slight degradation of threshold voltage, transconductance (g/sub m/), and 1/f noise after proton irradiation without any intentional radiation hardening. High-frequency measurements on the irradiated devices show that there is very little or no perceptible degradation of S-parameters, cut-off frequency (f/sub T/), or broadband noise characteristics to 1 Mrad(Si) exposure levels. These results suggest that this 0.12 /spl mu/m CMOS technology is well-suited for the development of total-dose radiation tolerant analog and RF circuits without additional radiation hardening.","PeriodicalId":320150,"journal":{"name":"2005 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium, 2005.

Two basic upset modes are identified: radiation-induced clock jitter and radiation-induced race. Our simulation results indicate that the radiation-induced clock soft error rate (SER) cannot be neglected on the chip-level. Particularly for pulse latch based designs, upsets occurring in the clock generator have the potential to dominate the chip-level SER if no mitigation techniques are applied. Our results show that the hardened pulse latch in combination with a hardened and shared pulse generator yields a 20/spl times/ improvement in sequential SER as well as the lowest susceptibility to radiation-induced race and clock jitter with little area and performance penalty.","PeriodicalId":320150,"journal":{"name":"2005 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium, 2005.

In this paper, we present a simplified method for quantifying the effects of process-induced charging of PECVD dielectrics commonly used in the fabrication of these devices. Using this method, based on capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurements of MIS (metal-insulator-semiconductor) devices, we examined the charge behavior of PECVD silicon dioxide, nitride, and oxynitride films deposited at substrate temperatures of 250-350/spl deg/C. The results show that these PECVD dielectrics contain sufficient incorporated charge in their as-deposited state to inhibit reliable switch operation. Post-deposition, plasma-induced and electrical stresses were also found to negatively impact the charge behavior of these films. However, after an initial period of instability, chemical analysis showed film composition to be highly consistent, both across deposition runs and with post-deposition stress. We conclude by presenting potential techniques for mitigation of the incorporated charge observed in these PECVD dielectrics.","PeriodicalId":320150,"journal":{"name":"2005 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium, 2005.
