Negative Bias Temperature Instability (NBTI) in p-MOSFETs: Characterization, Material/Process Dependence and Predictive Modeling (2011)
11 May 2011 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Souvik Mahapatra
This is a presentation on Negative Bias Temperature Instability, or in short NBTI, observed in p channel MOSFET devices. Though NBTI has been discovered more than 40 years ago, in the last 10 years it has become a very important reliability concern as the industry moved from thicker SiO2 to thinner …

Essential Aspects of Negative Bias Temperature Instability (NBTI)
01 May 2011 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Ahmad Ehteshamul Islam, Souvik Mahapatra, Muhammad Alam
We develop a comprehensive theoretical framework for explaining the key and characteristic experimental signatures of NBTI. The framework is based on an uncorrelated dynamics of interface-defect creation/annihilation described by Reaction-Diffusion (R-D) theory and hole trapping/detrapping …

On the Resolution of Ultra-fast NBTI Measurements and Reaction-Diffusion Theory
30 Dec 2009 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Ahmad Ehteshamul Islam, Souvik Mahapatra, Muhammad A. Alam
Reaction-Diffusion (R-D) theory, well-known to successfully explain most features of NBTI stress, is perceived to fail in explaining NBTI recovery. Several efforts have been made to understand differences between NBTI relaxation measured using ultra-fast methods and that predicted by R-D theory. …
