Abstract

The invention discloses a charge pump method for calculating the variable quantity of stress-induced interfacial state density in a nano-CMOS device. On the basis of a traditional CP method, the substrate currents of the nano small-size device in an initial state and in a stress state are measured, the real charge pump current I<cp> is extracted from the substrate current, and the stress-induced interfacial defect density is calculated. The charge pump method is suitable for the nano small-size CMOS device with the large leakage current, the frequency is kept fixed in the measurement process,and measurement results are high in accuracy; and the research on a stress-induced defect characterization method of the nano-CMOS device can be further developed, and the development of reliability research of the nano small-size CMOS device is promoted advantageously.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technology of interface state density generated by stress of CMOS components, and in particular relates to a charge pump method for calculating stress-induced interface state density variation in nanometer CMOS devices. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of integrated circuit technology, the technology node of integrated circuits is gradually reduced to the nanometer level, and the reliability of semiconductor devices seriously restricts the life of the devices. The stress conditions affecting CMOS devices mainly include: negative gate voltage temperature instability (Negative Bias Temperature Instability, NBTI), hot carrier injection effect (HotCarrier Injection, HCI) and gate oxide layer breakdown over time (Time-dependence dielectricbreakdown , TDDB) etc. When these stresses are applied in CMOS devices, the Si / SiO 2 The interface state or oxide layer defects are generated in the interface and...
