Abstract

The invention relates to a bias temperature instability testing method for an MOS device so that a technical problem that the measurement result is affected by the restoration effect after grid electrode stress cancelling during testing in the prior art can be solved. A threshold voltage Vth and a drain current Id0 corresponding to the threshold voltage are tested; a stress is added to a grid electrode; corresponding minimum drain currents Idsmeasure under same induced voltage before and after the stress are tested; a threshold voltage Vths corresponding to a point with the Idsmeasure equal tothe Id0 after stress application is found out; and according to a formula deltaV=Vths-Vth, an influence of a threshold offset value without a restoration effect is calculated. Therefore, problems aresolved. The method can be applied to testing of bias temperature instability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of characterization and testing of reliability of semiconductor devices, in particular to a testing method for bias temperature instability applied to MOS devices. Background technique [0002] Transistor device MOS is the basic component of integrated circuits. One of the important indicators to measure the reliability of MOS is MOS Bias Temperature Instability (BTI), which refers to the bias voltage applied to the transistor gate under certain temperature conditions. When the threshold voltage drifts in the electrical characteristics, as the development of technology requires the continuous reduction of the gate length and the continuous reduction of the thickness of the oxide layer, the influence of the bias temperature instability (BTI) of the MOS becomes more and more significant, and it has become a device One of the main factors of degradation. Therefore, it is of great significance to accurately tes...
