不同HALO掺杂剂量的超薄栅pMOSFET的退化

研究了热载流子应力下栅厚为2.1nm,栅长为0.135μm的pMOSFET中HALO掺杂剂量与器件的退化机制和参数退化的关系.实验发现,器件的退化机制对HALO掺杂剂量的改变不敏感,但是器件的线性漏电流、饱和漏电流、最大跨导的退化随着HALO掺杂剂量的增加而增加.实验同时发现,器件参数的退化不仅与载流子迁移率的退化、漏串联电阻增大有关,而且与阈值电压的退化和应力前阈值电压有关.     

氧等离子气氛中NMOS器件的性能退化

文章描述了氧等离子干法剥离光刻胶中MOS器件的性能退化问题,并且制备了不同天线比AR(Antenna Ratio),相同器件结构的NMOS器件来检测器件的退化.实验结果发现栅漏电流密度Jg和阈值电压Vt漂移会随着Al的天线面积的增加而非线性地增加,尤其表现在阈值电压漂移上.运用增加电流应力时间的测试来模拟器件在等离子反应腔中所受的实际应力,发现了与天线比增加时阈值电压变化趋势相同,表明在氧等离子气氛中器件受到了负电应力的影响.最后,基于此次实验的结果,在器件的设计,工艺参数的制定方面提出了一些减小干法剥离光刻胶工艺带来器件性能退化的建议.     

热载流子应力下n-MOSFET线性漏电流的退化

研究了不同沟道和栅氧化层厚度的n-M O S器件在衬底正偏压的VG=VD/2热载流子应力下,由于衬底正偏压的不同对器件线性漏电流退化的影响。实验发现衬底正偏压对沟长0.135μm,栅氧化层厚度2.5 nm器件的线性漏电流退化的影响比沟长0.25μm,栅氧化层厚度5 nm器件更强。分析结果表明,随着器件沟长继续缩短和栅氧化层减薄,由于衬底正偏置导致的阈值电压减小、增强的寄生NPN晶体管效应、沟道热电子与碰撞电离空穴复合所产生的高能光子以及热电子直接隧穿超薄栅氧化层产生的高能光子可能打断S i-S iO2界面的弱键产生界面陷阱,加速n-M O S器件线性漏电流的退化。     

空间辐射环境下SiC功率MOSFET栅氧长期可靠性研究

利用等效1 MeV中子和γ射线对1200 V SiC功率MOSFET进行辐射,研究了电离损伤和位移损伤对器件的影响,并分析了辐射后器件栅氧长期可靠性。结果表明：中子辐射后器件导通电阻发生明显退化,与辐射引入近界面缺陷降低载流子寿命和载流子迁移率有关。时间依赖的介质击穿(TDDB)结果表明,栅泄漏电流呈现先增加后降低趋势,与空穴捕获和电子捕获效应有关。中子辐射后栅漏电演化形式未改变,但氧化层击穿时间增加,这是中子辐射缺陷增加了Fowler-Nordheim(FN)隧穿势垒的缘故。总剂量辐射在器件氧化层内引入陷阱电荷,使得器件阈值电压负向漂移。随后的TDDB测试表明,与中子辐射一致,总剂量辐射未改变栅漏电演化形式,但氧化层击穿时间提前。这是总剂量辐射在氧化层内引入额外空穴陷阱和中性电子陷阱的缘故。     

栅长对深亚微米器件总剂量辐射诱生漏电流的影响研究

对0.18 um 工艺NMOSFET器件进行总剂量辐照实验,包括不同栅长器件。由于深亚微米器件栅氧化层厚度较薄,对总剂量辐照不敏感,辐照前后器件阈值电压基本不发生变化。所有尺寸器件的关态漏电流随总剂量增加而增加。我们认为,总剂量辐射在浅沟槽隔离氧化物侧壁诱生成源漏之间漏电路径。该漏电路径是由于浅沟槽隔离氧化物种陷阱正电荷形成的。研究发现,辐射诱生的漏电流大小与器件栅长密切相关。通过主晶体管和寄生晶体管模型可以很好解释该现象。     

直接隧穿应力下超薄栅氧MOS器件退化

研究了栅氧厚度为1.4nm MOS器件在恒压直接隧穿应力下器件参数退化和应力感应漏电流退化. 实验结果表明,在不同直接隧穿应力过程中,应力感应漏电流（SILC）的退化和Vth的退化均存在线性关系. 为了解释直接隧穿应力下SILC的起因,建立了一个界面陷阱和氧化层陷阱正电荷共同辅助遂穿模型.     

Vg=Vd/2)应力模式下宽度变窄对HALO-pMOSFETs退化的影响

讨论了最差应力模式下(V_g=V_d/2)宽沟和窄沟器件的退化特性.随着器件沟道宽度降低可以观察到宽度增强的器件退化.不同沟道宽度p MOSFETs的主要退化机制是界面态产生.沟道增强的器件退化是由于沟道宽度增强的碰撞电离率.通过分析电流拥挤效应,阈值电压随沟道宽度的变化,速度饱和区特征长度的变化和HAL O结构串联阻抗这些可能原因,得出沟道宽度增强的热载流子退化是由宽度降低导致器件阈值电压和串联阻抗降低的共同作用引起的.     

关态应力下 P- MOSFETs的退化

研究了沟长从 0 .5 2 5 μm到 1.0 2 5 μm9nm厚的 P- MOSFETs在关态应力 ( Vgs=0 ,Vds<0 )下的热载流子效应 .讨论了开态和关态应力 .结果发现由于在漏端附近存在电荷注入 ,关态漏电流在较高的应力后会减小 .但是低场应力后关态漏电流会增加 ,这是由于新生界面态的作用 .结果还发现开态饱和电流和阈值电压在关态应力后变化很明显 ,这是由于栅漏交叠处的电荷注入和应力产生的界面态的影响 .Idsat的退化可以用函数栅电流 ( Ig)乘以注入的栅氧化层电荷数 ( Qinj)的幂函数表达 .最后给出了基于 Idsat退化的寿命预测模型     

不同栅压应力下1.8V pMOS热载流子退化机理研究

本文详细研究了不同栅压应力下1.8V pMOS器件的热载流子退化机理.研究结果表明,随着栅压应力增加,电子注入机制逐渐转化为空穴注入机制,使得pMOS漏极饱和电流(I_dsat)、漏极线性电流(I_dlin)及阈值电压(V_th)等性能参数退化量逐渐增加,但在V_gs=90%*V_ds时,因为没有载流子注入栅氧层,使得退化趋势出现转折.此外,研究还发现,界面态位于耗尽区时对空穴迁移率的影响小于其位于非耗尽区时的影响,致使正向I_dsat退化小于反向I_dsat退化,然而,正反向I_dlin退化却相同,这是因为I_dlin状态下器件整个沟道区均处于非耗尽状态.     

HALO结构pMOSFETs在V_g=V_d/2应力模式下应力相关的热载流子退化

研究了超薄栅(2 .5 nm )短沟HAL O- p MOSFETs在Vg=Vd/ 2应力模式下不同应力电压时热载流子退化特性.随着应力电压的变化,器件的退化特性也发生了改变.在加速应力下寿命外推方法会导致过高地估计器件寿命.在高场应力下器件退化是由空穴注入或者电子与空穴复合引起的,随着应力电压的下降器件退化主要是由电子注入引起的.最后,给出了两种退化机制的临界电压并在实验中得到验证     

Preparation and Characterization of TaN ALD Precursors

High purity organic-tantalum precursors for thin film ALD TaN were synthesized and characterized.Vapor pressure and thermal stability of these precursors were studied.From the vapor pressure analysis,it was found that TBTEMT has a higher vapor pressure than any other published liquid TaN precursor,including TBTDET,TAITMATA,and IPTDET.Thermal stability of the alkyl groups on the precursors was investigated using a 1H NMR technique.The results indicated that the tertbutylimino group is the most stable group on TBTDET and TBTEMT as compared to the dialkylamido groups.Thermal stability of TaN precursors decreased in the following order:TBTDET ＞ PDMAT ＞ TBTEMT.In conclusion,precursor vapor pressure and thermal stability were tuned by making slight variations in the ligand sphere around the metal center.     

Curved crystal spectrometer for the measurement of X-ray lines from laser-produced plasmas

In order to diagnose the laser-produced plasmas, a focusing curved crystal spectrometer has been developed for measuring the X-ray lines radiated from a laser-produced plasmas. The design is based on the fact that the ray emitted from a source located at one focus of an ellipse will converge on the other focus by the reflection of the elliptical surface. The focal length and the eccentricity of the ellipse are 1350 mm and 0.9586, respectively. The spectrometer can be used to measure the X- ray lines in the wavelength range of 0.2-0.37 nm, and a LiF crystal （200） （2d = 0.4027 nm） is used as dispersive element covering Bragg angle from 30° to 67.5°. The spectrometer was tested on Shengnang- Ⅱ which can deliver laser energy of 60-80 J/pulse and the laser wavelength is 0.35 μm. Photographs of spectra including the 1 s2p ^1P1-1s^2 ^1S0 resonance line（w）, the 1s2p ^3P2-1s^2 1S0 magnetic quadrupole line（x）, the 1s2p ^3P1-1 s^2 ^1S0 intercombination lines（y）, the 1 s2p ^3S~1-1 s^2 ^1S0 forbidden line（z） in helium-like Ti Ⅹ Ⅺ and the 1 s2s2p ^2P3/2-1 s622s ^2S1/2 line（q） in lithium-like Ti Ⅹ Ⅹhave been recorded with a X-ray CCD camera. The experimental result shows that the wavelength resolution（λ/△ 2） is above 1000 and the elliptical crystal spectrometer is suitable for X-ray spectroscopy.     

Electronic Structure of Semiconductor Nanocrystals

This paper reviews our recent development of the use of the large-scale pseudopotential method to calculate the electronic structure of semiconductor nanocrystals, such as quantum dots and wires, which often contain tens of thousands of atoms. The calculated size-dependent exciton energies and absorption spectra of quantum dots and wires are in good agreement with experiments. We show that the electronic structure of a nanocrystal can be tuned not only by its size,but also by its shape. Finally,we show that defect properties in quantum dots can be significantly different from those in bulk semiconductors.

GaAsSb/InAlAs PA DHBTs Grown by Production MBE

The epi material growth of GaAsSb based DHBTs with InAlAs emitters are investigated using a 4 × 100mm multi-wafer production Riber 49 MBE reactor fully equipped with real-time in-situ sensors including an absorption band edge spectroscope and an optical-based flux monitor. The state-of-the-art hole mobilities are obtained from 100nm thick carbon-doped GaAsSb. A Sb composition variation of less than ± 0.1 atomic percent across a 4 × 100mm platen configuration has been achieved. The large area InAlAs/GaAsSb/InP DHBT device demonstrates excellent DC characteristics,such as BVCEO＞6V and a DC current gain of 45 at 1kA/cm2 for an emitter size of 50μm × 50μm. The devices have a 40nm thick GaAsSb base with p-doping of 4. 5 × 1019cm-3 . Devices with an emitter size of 4μm × 30μm have a current gain variation less than 2% across the fully processed 100mm wafer. ft and fmax are over 50GHz,with a power efficiency of 50% ,which are comparable to standard power GaAs HBT results. These results demonstrate the potential application of GaAsSb/InP DHBT for power amplifiers and the feasibility of multi-wafer MBE for mass production of GaAsSb-based HBTs.

Noise character analysis and the restraint of self-pulsation laser diodes

We calculate the Langevin noise sources of self-pulsation laser diodes, analyze the effects of active region noise and saturable-absorption region noise on the power fluctuation as well as period fluctuation, and propose a novel method to restrain the noise effects. A visible SIMULINK model is established to simulate the system, The results indicate that the effects of noise in absorption region can be ignored; that with the increase of DC injecting current, the noise effects enhance power jitter, and nevertheless, the period jitter is decreased; and that with external sinusoidal current modulating the self-pulsation laser diode, the noise-induced power jitter and period jitter can be suppressed greatly. This work is valuable for clock recovery in all-optical network.
