  • In this paper, we have proposed a new approach for optical failure analysis which employs a CMOS photon-emitting circuitry, consisting of a flip-flop based on a sense amplifier and a photon-emitting device. This method can be used even with deep-submicron processes where conventional optical failure analyses are difficult to use due to the low sensitivity in the near infrared (NIR) region of the spectrum. The effectiveness of our approach has been proved by the failure analysis of a prototype designed and fabricated in 0.18 ${\mu}m$ CMOS process.

  • Low temperature hole transport characteristics of gate-all-around p-channel metal oxide semiconductor (PMOS) type silicon nanowire field-effect-transistors with the radius of 5 nm and lengths of 44-46 nm are presented. They show coexisting two single hole states randomly switching between each other. Analysis of Coulomb diamonds of these two switching states reveals a variety of electrostatic effects which is originated by the potential of a single hole captured in the trap near the nanowire.
