Test construction for transistor

Abstract

The invention provides a test structure for transistors. The structure comprises an electric-charge storage element and a discharge element which are in parallel connection between a grid of a tested transistor and a substrate, wherein the area of the electric-charge storage element is larger than that of the transistor. The electric-charge storage element and the discharge element are taken as protective elements, can prevent instantaneous high current produced by electrostatic discharge from destroying a thin-grid oxide layer of a semiconductor transistor and even breaking down a grid of the semiconductor transistor so as to cause permanent damage.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a test structure of a transistor. Background technique [0002] Complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) process technology uses thin film deposition technology (Thin Film Deposition) to layer-deposit conductors, semiconductors, and insulating layers on the surface of the wafer to be manufactured to form semiconductor devices such as transistors or capacitors. . [0003] During the wafer manufacturing process, wafer-level reliability testing (WLR, Wafer Level Reliability) or package-level reliability testing (PLR, Package Level Reliability) is performed on test samples (samples) of semiconductor devices to monitor the manufacturing process in real time. The introduced defects are very necessary. The reliability test will feed back the test results to the production line in time, so as to strengthen the control of the relevant process steps, so as to obtain high-quality and high-reliability products. [0004] However, be...
