Journal ArticleDOI
Nonuniform total-dose-induced charge distribution in shallow-trench isolation oxides
TL;DR: In this paper, a new approach for modeling the radiation-induced charge distribution in shallow-trench isolation (STI) structures is proposed, which shows that much less charge is trapped near the top of the trench.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulation of nonequilibrium thermal effects in power LDMOS transistors
TL;DR: In this paper, the extent and significance of thermal nonequilibrium is determined from phonon temperature distributions obtained using a common electronic solution and three different heating models (Joule heating, electron/lattice scattering, phonon scattering).
Journal ArticleDOI
Single-Event Burnout of SiC Junction Barrier Schottky Diode High-Voltage Power Devices
A. F. Witulski,Robert R. Arslanbekov,Ashok Raman,Ronald D. Schrimpf,Andrew L. Sternberg,Kenneth F. Galloway,Arto Javanainen,David Grider,Daniel J. Lichtenwalner,Brett Hull +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the boundary between leakage current degradation and a single event-burnout-like effect is a strong function of linear energy transfer and reverse bias, consistent with the hypothesis that ion energy causes eutectic-like intermixture at the metal-semiconductor interface or localized melting of the silicon carbide lattice.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Fast, automated thermal simulation of three-dimensional integrated circuits
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present results of automated, fast, but detailed thermal simulations of 3D stacked integrated circuits, and procedures for automatic extraction of reduced and compact thermal-resistance-based 3D models have been implemented.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Evaluation of Transistor-Layout RHBD Techniques for SEE Mitigation in SiGe HBTs
Akil K. Sutton,Marco Bellini,John D. Cressler,Jonathan A. Pellish,Robert A. Reed,Paul W. Marshall,Guofu Niu,Gyorgy Vizkelethy,Marek Turowski,Ashok Raman +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated transistor-level layout-based techniques for SEE mitigation in advanced SiGe HBTs, which is based on the inclusion of an alternate reverse-biased pn junction (n-ring) designed to shunt electron charge away from the sub-collector to substrate junction.
