In this paper, The stress induced leakage currents of thin silicon oxides is investigated in the nano scale structure implementation for Soc. The stress and transient currents associated with the on and off time of applied voltage were used to measure the distribution of high voltage stress induced traps in thin silicon oxide films. The stress and transient currents were due to the charging and discharging of traps generated by high stress voltage in the silicon oxides. The channel current for the thickness dependence of stress current, transient current, and stress induced leakage currents has been measured in oxides with thicknesses between $41\square\;and\;113.4\square,$ which have the channel width x length 10x1um, respectively. The stress induced leakage currents will affect data retention and the stress current, transient current is used to estimate to fundamental limitations on oxide thicknesses. The weight value of synapse transistor was caused by the bias conditions. Excitatory state and inhitory state according to weighted values affected the channel current. The stress induced leakage currents affected excitatory state and inhitory state.

본 연구에서는 채널 폭 변화에 따른 나노와이어 GAA 소자의 GIDL 전류 (Gate Induced Drain Leakage Current)를 측정하고, hot carrier 스트레스를 인가하였을 때 소자의 GIDL전류특성 변화를 분석하였다. 소자의 길이는 250nm로 고정시키고 채널 폭이 10nm, 50nm, 80nm, 130nm인 소자들을 사용하여 측정하였다. 스트레스 전의 소자를 측정한 결과 채널 폭이 감소할수록 GIDL전류가 증가하였고, 채널 폭이 증가할수록 구동전류는 증가함을 확인하였다. Hot carrier 스트레스에 따른 GIDL 전류 측정값의 변화율은 채널 폭이 감소할수록 큰 변화율을 보였다. 또한, 채널 폭이 감소할수록 또 hot carrier 스트레스 후 GIDL 전류가 증가하는 이유를 소자 시뮬레이션을 통하여 확인하였다.

본 논문은 금속 산화물 반도체의 산화막 두께, 채널 폭과 길이에 따른 실리콘 산화막의 신뢰성 특성을 연구하였다. 스트레스전류와 전이전류는 스트레스 전압에 의하여 발생된다. 스트레스 유기 누설전류는 스트레스 전압 인가 동안과 인가 후의 실리콘 산화막에 나타난다. 이때 저레벨 스트레스 전압에 의한 저레벨 누설전류는 저전압 인가 동안과 인가 후의 얇은 실리콘 산화막에서 발생한다. 저레벨 누설전류는 각각 스트레스 바이어스 조건에 따라 스트레스전류와 전이전류를 측정하였다. 스트레스 채널전류는 일정한 게이트 전압이 인가동안 측정하였고 전이 채널전류는 일정한 게이트 전압을 인가한 후에 측정하였다. 본 연구는 소자의 구동 동작 신뢰성을 위하여 저레벨 스트레스 바이어스 전압에 의한 스트레스 전류와 전이전류가 발생되어 이러한 저레벨 누설전류를 조사하였다.

In this paper, we analyzed the gate current and substrate current by the hot carrier effects and restoration phenomenon of characteristics by time in the p-channel MOSFETs. The Stress voltage condition is a voltage in maximum gate current and time is 3s, 10s, 30s, l00s, 1000s, 2000s and 3000s. As results of analysis, the gate current and substrate current were decreased by stress time, and the restoration time of characteristics were shown the results that were decreased by the exponential times.

In this study, we propose a low voltage stress and cost-effective light emitting diode (LED) driver capable of multi-channel current balancing. Conventional LED drivers require as many boost converters as the number of LED channels, whereas the proposed LED driver requires only one buck converter and several balancing capacitors instead of several expensive boost converters. Additionally, while the components of the boost converter have high voltage stress and depend on the LED driving voltage, components of the proposed driver have about one-half of the voltage stress across all components. The proposed driver exhibits high reliability and cost effectiveness because it only uses few DC blocking capacitors with no additional active devices to balance the current of multi-channel LEDs. The proposed driver exhibits high reliability and cost effectiveness. The validity of the proposed driver is confirmed through a theoretical analysis. An explanation of the design considerations and experimental results were obtained using a prototype applicable to a 46" LED-TV.

We have studied the hot-carrier-induced degradation caused by the high channel electric field due to the decrease of the gate length of MOSFET used in VLSI. Under DC stress, the condition in which maximum substrate current occures gave the worst degradation. Under AC dynamic stress, other conditions, the pulse shape and the falling rate, gave enormous effects on the degradation phenomena, especially at 77K. Threshold voltage, transconductance, channel conductance and gate current were measured and compared under various stress conditions. The threshold voltage was almost completely recovered by hot-injection stress as a reverse-stress. But, the transconductance was rapidly degraded under hot-hole injection and recovered by sequential hot-electron stress. The Si-SiO2 interface state density was analyzed by a charge pumping technique and the charge pumping current showed the same trend as the threshold voltage shift in degradation process.

In this paper, polycrystalline silicon thin film transistor using by Solid Phase Crystallization(SPC) were fabricated, and these devices were measured and analyzed the electrical output and transfer characteristics along to DC voltage stress. The transfer characteristics of polycrystalline silicon thin film transistor depended on drain and gate voltages. Threshold voltage is high with long channel length and narrow channel width. And output characteristics of polycrystalline silicon thin film transistor flowed abruptly much higher drain current. The devices induced electrical stress are decreased drain current. At last, field effect mobility is the faster as channel length is high and channel width is narrow.
