Device failure in high voltage off state conditions was studied by controlling drain leakage current and maximum applied drain voltage simultaneously. It was found that failure was associated with loss in gate control of channel current and a permanent degradation of gate diode leakage current. No permanent significant change until device failure was observed in ON-state parameters such as Ron, Idss and Idmax, thus distinguishing this failure mode from the inverse pieozo-electric effect as reported in literature.","PeriodicalId":341663,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130027487","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}

To develop a robust prediction method in this circumstance, this work first collects statistical device data from a 65nm test chip with a resolution of 0.2mV in threshold voltage (Vth) measurement. By comparing model prediction from short-term stress data (<;20k second) with direct long-term measurement (up to 200k second), we conclude that (1) the degradation follows a logarithmic dependence on time, as opposed to the conventional power law; (2) the Reaction-Diffusion (R-D) based tn model significantly overestimates the aging rate and exaggerates its variance; (3) the log(t) model, derived from the trapping/de-trapping (T-D) mechanism, correctly captures the aging variability due to the randomness in number of available traps, and accurately predicts the mean and the variance of Vth shift. These results guide the development of a new aging model for robust long-term lifetime prediction.","PeriodicalId":341663,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132901762","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}

Specifically, different UBM and PI open sizes as well as plated Ni and sputtered Cu UBM thicknesses were experimentally investigated. UBM sizes between 84 and 65 μm directly impact lifetime, while PI open diameters between 30 to 20 μm did not. A current-density exponent (n) value of 1 was measured when Joule heating is neglected, thereby suggesting a void-growth-limited mechanism. This value increases to 2 or greater when Joule heating is included, showing that Joule heating can strongly impact Imax extrapolations. Also, a thin plated Ni layer (1.5μm) and a thin sputtered Cu layer (2kÅ) independently led to significant early fails due to improper barrier coverage (rather than the thickness of the layer), which enhanced intermetallic transformation and therefore electromigration failure.","PeriodicalId":341663,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121704659","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}

Typically, these processes are modeled in terms of stochastic quantities related to a Weibull distribution. In many cases the direct Weibull approach is not capable of explaining the observed times to dielectric breakdown (TDDB), leading to the necessity to introduce more complex models. This, in turn, leads to considerable complications in the process of modeling and analyzing this phenomenon. In this article we present an approach to analysis of TDDB data based on the assumption that a sample can be viewed as a collection of competing cells, where the same stochastic process of degradation is taking place in the individual cells. Every cell, therefore, has its individual time to failure, and the cell having the shortest time is the one that actually causes the failure. In many cases, this is the only lifetime that is actually observable, as the sample and the ongoing processes in the cells could be affected by the dielectric discharge in one of them. We consider the situation where times of breakdown of individual cells can be modeled by a lognormal distribution and develop an approach based on the finite-sample distribution of minimum. This model leads to a relatively simple explanation of the TDDB data, including both low and high percentiles. We develop procedures for inference based on complete or right-censored TDDB data and illustrate its application for data obtained in the course of stress-based experiments.","PeriodicalId":341663,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)","volume":"79 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128103836","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}

Ohmic conduction of electron hopping dominates at the low electric field. Poole-Frenkel emission and Fowler-Nordheim tunneling occur at high field on the different bias conditions respectively.

These thin silicon films impose stringent mechanical strength and handling requirements during wafer transfer, cell processing and module integration. Quantitative mechanical and fracture analyses to address reliability issues become necessary. Based on a bi-material foil composed of thin monocrystalline silicon and a supporting substrate fabricated from a novel SOM® (Semiconductor on Metal) kerf-less exfoliation process, closed-form mechanical analyses are introduced and developed to evaluate their strength and fracture behaviors. These analyses include the thermal stress field in the device silicon layer and supporting substrate, the fracture behavior and effects of pyramid structures from surface texturing and the energy release rate at the silicon-substrate interface. It is shown that the introduction of the intrinsic compressive residual strain in the SOM® substrate expands the processing temperature spectrum. The developed analysis and methodology can be readily extended to other thin film solar cell structures with various configurations of device layers and supporting substrates.","PeriodicalId":341663,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133379570","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}
