Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of transistor noise processing technology, and in particular to a device noise density determination method, apparatus, electronic equipment and storage medium. Background Art
[0002] With the development of semiconductor manufacturing technology, the quality requirements for semiconductor devices are becoming increasingly higher. The quality of semiconductor devices is closely related to their noise characteristics. Currently, the quality and reliability of semiconductor devices are mainly screened by detecting and analyzing the properties of semiconductor device noise. The general noise model BSIM4 (Berkeley Short-channel IGFET Model) for detecting and analyzing the properties of semiconductor device noise simulates the noise density in the inversion region and non-inversion region of the semiconductor device using the same fitting parameters. The noise density of the semiconductor device in the subthreshold region and the noise density in the inversion region can be obtained. Among them, the noise density of the semiconductor device in the subthreshold region is close to the noise density of the semiconductor device in the inversion region.
[0003] However, in reality, the noise density of semiconductor devices in the subthreshold region is much greater than the noise density in the inversion region. Therefore, the noise density of the semiconductor in the subthreshold region reflected by the simulation using BSIM4 is not accurate enough, which in turn leads to the total noise density of the semiconductor device reflected by the simulation using BSIM4 being not accurate enough. How to improve the accuracy of the total noise density of the semiconductor device obtained by simulation using BSIM4 is an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0019] In an embodiment of the present invention, the gate voltage and device parameters of the device are obtained, and the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter of the device is determined based on the gate voltage. Then, based on the device parameters and the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter, the first noise density of the device in the inversion region and the second noise density of the device in the subthreshold region are determined, and the total noise density of the device is determined based on the first noise density and the second noise density. Since the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter is determined based on the gate voltage, changes with the gate voltage, and is not a constant parameter, when determining the first noise density of the device (semiconductor device) in the inversion region and the second noise density in the subthreshold region based on the device parameters and the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter, the first noise density and the second noise density are determined based on different effective values of the first noise fitting parameter, so that the transition between the first noise density and the second noise density will not be too smooth, that is, BSIM4 no longer uses the same fitting parameters to simulate the noise density of the inversion region and the non-inversion region of the semiconductor device, but uses different fitting parameters to simulate the noise density of the inversion region and the non-inversion region of the semiconductor device, which can more accurately reflect the actual first noise density (noise density in the inversion region) and second noise density (noise density in the subthreshold region) of the device, so as to improve the accuracy of the determination of the first noise density and the second noise density, and thus improve the accuracy of simulating the total noise density of the semiconductor device using BSIM4.

[0029] The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described in detail in some embodiments.
[0030] Figure 1 This is a flow chart of a device noise density determination method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. This method can be executed by a device noise density determination device, which can be implemented in software and / or hardware. In a specific embodiment, the device can be integrated into an electronic device, such as a computer, a server, etc. The following embodiments will be described using the device integrated into an electronic device as an example. Figure 1 , the method may specifically include the following steps:
[0031] Step 101: Obtain the gate voltage and device parameters of the device.
[0032] Among them, the device can be a Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET), which is a device made of three materials: metal, oxide (SiO2 or SiN), and semiconductor. The gate voltage can be understood as the voltage used to control the conductive characteristics of the Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET). Device parameters are used to characterize device-related device characteristics. Device parameters are associated with the device type and vary from device to device.
[0033] In the embodiment of the present invention, the gate voltage is associated with the device type, and the gate voltages of devices of different types are different.
[0034] Step 102: Determine an effective value of a first noise fitting parameter of the device according to the gate voltage.
[0035] Among them, the noise model BSIM4 includes an inversion region noise density model of the device in the inversion region and a subthreshold region noise density model of the device in the subthreshold region. The noise fitting parameters used in the inversion region noise density model of the device in the inversion region include a first noise fitting parameter (NOIA), a third noise fitting parameter (NOIB) and a fourth noise fitting parameter (NOIC). The noise fitting parameters used in the subthreshold region noise density model of the device in the subthreshold region also include the first noise fitting parameter (NOIA). The effective value of the above-mentioned first noise fitting parameter can be understood as the effective value of the fitted first noise fitting parameter NOIA.
[0036] In an optional implementation, after the gate voltage of the device is acquired, the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter of the device may be calculated according to the gate voltage.
[0037] Specifically, the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter may be calculated in combination with the gate voltage, the effective value of the inversion region noise, the effective value of the subthreshold region noise, and the like.
[0038] Step 103 : determining a first noise density of the device in the inversion region and a second noise density of the device in the subthreshold region based on the device parameters and the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter.
[0039] In the embodiment of the present invention, the device parameters may be understood as parameters of a BSIM4 model required for calculating a first noise density of the device in the inversion region and a second noise density of the device in the subthreshold region.
[0040] In a specific embodiment, device parameters may include, but are not limited to, device temperature, effective mobility, channel current, effective channel length, frequency of the second noise fitting parameter, first model parameters, second model parameters, third model parameters, gate oxide capacitance, source carrier concentration, drain carrier concentration, effective channel width, and channel effect parameters. The first noise density can be understood as the noise density of the device in the inversion region; the second noise density can be understood as the noise density of the device in the subthreshold region.
[0041] Step 104 : determining a total noise density of the device according to the first noise density and the second noise density.
[0042] where total noise density is the final noise density of the device.
[0043] In an embodiment of the present invention, the total noise density may be determined according to a first noise density of the device in the inversion region and a second noise density of the device in the subthreshold region.
[0044] Specifically, the total noise density of the device can be determined by calculating the product and the sum of the first noise density and the second noise density, and then determining the total noise density of the device according to the product and the sum.
[0045] In an embodiment of the present invention, the gate voltage and device parameters of the device are obtained, and the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter of the device is determined based on the gate voltage. Then, based on the device parameters and the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter, the first noise density of the device in the inversion region and the second noise density of the device in the subthreshold region are determined, and the total noise density of the device is determined based on the first noise density and the second noise density. Since the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter is determined based on the gate voltage, changes with the gate voltage, and is not a constant parameter, when determining the first noise density of the device (semiconductor device) in the inversion region and the second noise density in the subthreshold region based on the device parameters and the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter, the first noise density and the second noise density are determined based on different effective values of the first noise fitting parameter, so that the transition between the first noise density and the second noise density will not be too smooth, that is, BSIM4 no longer uses the same fitting parameters to simulate the noise density of the inversion region and the non-inversion region of the semiconductor device, but uses different fitting parameters to simulate the noise density of the inversion region and the non-inversion region of the semiconductor device, which can more accurately reflect the actual first noise density (noise density in the inversion region) and second noise density (noise density in the subthreshold region) of the device, so as to improve the accuracy of the determination of the first noise density and the second noise density, and thus improve the accuracy of simulating the total noise density of the semiconductor device using BSIM4.
[0046] In one embodiment, determining the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter of the device according to the gate voltage may be performed by substituting the gate voltage into a pre-built noise fitting parameter effective value calculation model, and determining the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter of the device according to the noise fitting parameter effective value calculation model.
[0047] Specifically, in combination with the above-mentioned embodiments, the gate voltage, the effective value of the inversion region noise and the effective value of the subthreshold region noise can be substituted into the noise fitting parameter effective value calculation model, and the first noise fitting parameter effective value of the device can be calculated based on the noise fitting parameter effective value calculation model.
[0048] In the embodiment of the present invention, the noise fitting parameter effective value calculation model can be expressed by the following formula (1):
[0049]
[0050] Wherein, NOIAeff represents the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter, NOIAH represents the effective value of the subthreshold region noise, NOIAL represents the effective value of the inversion region noise, Vgs represents the gate voltage, V0 represents the first fitting parameter, Vth0 represents the threshold voltage, and MP represents the second fitting parameter. The effective value of the inversion region noise can be understood as the effective value of NOIA of the fitted device in the inversion region, and the effective value of the subthreshold region noise can be understood as the effective value of NOIA of the fitted device in the subthreshold region. The first fitting parameter and the second fitting parameter are fitting parameters determined by the model after fitting and can be constant parameters.
[0051] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the construction process of the noise fitting parameter effective value calculation model may include:
[0052] Step 201: Obtain the threshold voltage of the device.
[0053] Step 202: Determine a plurality of gate voltages according to the threshold voltage.
[0054] Step 203: Acquire multiple noise fitting parameters of the device at multiple gate voltages.
[0055] Step 204 : Adjust at least one noise fitting parameter among the multiple noise fitting parameters, and perform parameter fitting of the effective value of the noise fitting parameter based on the adjusted noise fitting parameter to obtain a noise fitting parameter effective value calculation model.
[0056] In an optional embodiment, the first noise fitting parameter can be changed while the second noise fitting parameter, the third noise fitting parameter and the fourth noise fitting parameter are kept unchanged to perform parameter fitting of the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter and obtain a noise fitting parameter effective value calculation model.
[0057] For example, Vth0 represents the threshold voltage of the device, and VDD represents the power supply voltage; to obtain the threshold voltage Vth0, different gate voltages can be Vth0-0.2V, Vth0-0.1V, Vth0, Vth0+0.1V, Vth0+0.2V, VDD / 2 and VDD, wherein, before obtaining the first noise fitting parameter, the second noise fitting parameter, the third noise fitting parameter and the fourth noise fitting parameter of the device under multiple gate voltages, it is also necessary to set the drain voltage Vd to 0.1V, VDD=2Vd, the source voltage Vs to 0V, and the substrate voltage Vb to 0V.
[0058] Specifically, the first noise fitting parameter (NOIA), the second noise fitting parameter (ef), the third noise fitting parameter (NOIB) and the fourth noise fitting parameter (NOIC) of the device at multiple gate voltages are obtained, as shown in Table 1. By changing the multiple first noise fitting parameters to obtain multiple first noise fitting parameters (NOIA1, NOIA2, NOIA3, NOIA4, NOIA5, NOIA6, NOIA7), keeping the multiple second noise fitting parameters, the multiple third noise fitting parameters and the multiple fourth noise fitting parameters unchanged, and using formula (1) to perform parameter fitting of the effective values of the first noise fitting parameters at different gate voltages, it can be obtained as follows: Figure 3 The fitting diagram of the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter and the gate voltage is shown in FIG. Figure 3 , NOIAH, NOIAL, V0, and MP in formula (1) can be determined, and then the functional relationship between the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter and the gate voltage can be obtained, that is, formula (1). When actually determining the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter of the device, the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter of the device can be determined by only obtaining the gate voltage.
[0059] Table 1 Noise fitting parameters at different gate voltages
[0060]
[0061] In some embodiments, the device may be Figure 4 The multi-finger gate structure shown in FIG. Figure 4 The S is the source terminal and D is the drain terminal.
[0062] In the above embodiment, by setting the structure of the device to a multi-finger gate structure, the total width of the device channel can be increased, so that the source-drain current of the device in the subthreshold region meets the preset conditions at different gate voltages, such as being greater than 0.1uA, etc., thereby ensuring the data accuracy of the first noise fitting parameter, the second noise fitting parameter, the third noise fitting parameter, and the fourth noise fitting parameter of the device in the subthreshold region obtained at different gate voltages, so as to improve the reliability and accuracy of the constructed formula (1) (i.e., the noise fitting parameter effective value calculation model). Furthermore, the accuracy of the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter of the device determined based on the noise fitting parameter effective value calculation model can be improved, ensuring the accuracy of determining the first noise density and the second noise density based on the device parameters and the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter, and further improving the accuracy of determining the total noise density of the device based on the first noise density and the second noise density, that is, further improving the simulation accuracy of the total noise density of BSIM4.
[0063] In an optional embodiment, the device parameters mentioned above, namely temperature, effective mobility, channel current, effective channel length, frequency of the second noise fitting parameter, first model parameter, second model parameter, third model parameter, gate oxide capacitance, source carrier concentration, drain carrier concentration, effective channel width, channel effect parameter and effective value of the first noise fitting parameter, can be substituted into the inversion region noise density model, and the first noise density of the device in the inversion region can be calculated using the inversion region noise density model.
[0064] In a specific embodiment, the inversion region noise density model can be expressed by the following formula (2):
[0065]
[0066] Among them, S id,inv (f) represents the first noise density of the device in the inversion region, k B represents the constant quantity, T represents the temperature, q represents the charge constant, μ eff represents the effective mobility, I ds represents the channel current, C oxe represents the gate oxide capacitance, L eff represents the effective channel length, LINTNOI represents the first model parameter, A bulk represents the second model parameter, NOIAeff represents the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter, N0 represents the source end carrier concentration, N l Represents the drain carrier concentration, N * represents the third model parameter, ef represents the second noise fitting parameter, f ef represents the frequency of the second noise fitting parameter, NOIB represents the third noise fitting parameter, NOIC represents the fourth noise fitting parameter, Lclm represents the channel effect parameter, W eff Represents the effective channel width.
[0067] In an embodiment of the present invention, the first noise density of the device in the inversion region is determined by substituting the temperature, effective mobility, channel current, effective channel length, frequency of the second noise fitting parameter, first model parameter, second model parameter, third model parameter, gate oxide capacitance, source carrier concentration, drain carrier concentration, effective channel width, channel effect parameter and effective value of the first noise fitting parameter into the inversion region noise density model. The effective value of the first noise fitting parameter NOIAeff changes with the gate voltage, so that the transition between the first noise density of the device in the inversion region determined according to the device parameters and the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter and the second noise density of the device in the subthreshold region will not be too smooth, and the actual first noise density and second noise density of the device can be reflected more accurately, thereby improving the accuracy of the first noise density of the device in the inversion region determined according to the device parameters and the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter, thereby improving the accuracy of the total noise density of the device reflected by the noise model of BSIM4, that is, improving the simulation accuracy of the total noise density of BSIM4.
[0068] In one embodiment, the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter, temperature, channel current, effective channel length, effective channel width, frequency of the second noise fitting parameter and the third model parameter can also be substituted into the subthreshold region noise density model, and the second noise density of the device in the subthreshold region can be calculated using the subthreshold region noise density model.
[0069] In the embodiment of the present invention, the subthreshold region noise density model can be expressed by the following formula (3):
[0070]
[0071] Among them, S id,subVt (f) represents the second noise density of the device in the subthreshold region, NOIAeff represents the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter, k B represents the constant quantity, T represents the temperature, I ds Represents the channel current, W eff Indicates the effective channel width, L eff represents the effective channel length, ef represents the second noise fitting parameter, f ef The frequency of the second noise fitting parameter, N * represents the third model parameter.
[0072] In an embodiment of the present invention, the second noise density of the device in the subthreshold region is determined by substituting the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter, temperature, channel current, effective channel length, effective channel width, frequency of the second noise fitting parameter and the third model parameter into the subthreshold region noise density model. This is equivalent to replacing the constant parameter (first noise fitting parameter NOIA) used in the original noise density model of the device in the subthreshold region with the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter NOIAeff that changes with the gate voltage. Since NOIAeff can better reflect the change of the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter with the gate voltage, the transition between the first noise density of the device in the inversion region and the second noise density of the device in the subthreshold region determined according to the device parameters and the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter will not be too smooth, and the actual first noise density and second noise density of the device can be reflected more accurately, thereby improving the accuracy of the second noise density of the device in the subthreshold region determined according to the device parameters and the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter, thereby improving the accuracy of the total noise density of the device reflected by the noise model of BSIM4, that is, improving the simulation accuracy of the total noise density of BSIM4.
[0073] As described above, when determining the total noise density of a device, the product and the sum of the first noise density and the second noise density may be calculated, and the total noise density of the device may be determined based on the product and the sum.
[0074] In an optional implementation, the first noise density and the second noise density may be substituted into a total noise density model, and the total noise density of the device may be determined using the total noise density model.
[0075] In the embodiment of the present invention, the total noise density model can be expressed by the following formula (4):
[0076]
[0077] Among them, S id (f) represents the total noise density of the device, S id,inv (f) represents the first noise density of the device in the inversion region, S id,subVt (f) shows the second noise density of the device in the subthreshold region.

The technical solution of the present invention, because the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter determined according to the gate voltage is no longer a constant parameter, can better reflect the change of the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter with the gate voltage, and thus the transition between the first noise density of the device (semiconductor device) in the inversion region and the second noise density of the device in the subthreshold region determined according to the device parameters and the effective value of the first noise fitting parameter will not be too smooth, that is, BSIM4 no longer uses the same fitting parameters to simulate the noise density of the inversion region and the non-inversion region of the semiconductor device, but uses different fitting parameters to simulate the noise density of the inversion region and the non-inversion region of the semiconductor device, which can more accurately reflect the noise density of the semiconductor device. The actual first noise density (noise density in the inversion region) and second noise density (noise density in the subthreshold region) of the device improve the accuracy of the first noise density of the device in the inversion region and the accuracy of the second noise density of the device in the subthreshold region determined according to the device parameters and the effective value of the first noise fitting parameters, thereby improving the accuracy of the total noise density of the semiconductor device obtained by simulation using BSIM4, and solving the problem that the total noise density of the semiconductor device reflected by simulation using BSIM4 is not accurate enough because BSIM4 simulates the noise density in the inversion region and non-inversion region of the semiconductor device by using the same fitting parameters.
