Journal ArticleDOI
Correlating the Radiation Response of MOS Capacitors and Transistors
TL;DR: In this paper, a new technique is presented for separating the thresholdvoltage shift of an MOS transistor into shifts due to interface states and trapped-oxide charge, and the radiation responses of MOS capacitors and transistors fabricated on the same wafer are compared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physical Mechanisms Contributing to Device "Rebound"
Abstract: The physical mechanisms that produce rebound have been identified. The positive increase in threshold voltage during a bias anneal is due to annealing of oxide trapped charge. Rebound can be predicted by measuring the contribution to the threshold voltage from radiation-induced interface states immediately after irradiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Role of Hydrogen in Radiation-Induced Defect Formation in Polysilicon Gate MOS Devices
J.R. Schwank,Daniel M. Fleetwood,P.S. Winokur,Paul V. Dressendorfer,D. C. Turpin,D. T. Sanders +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of hydrogen in the generation of radiation-induced interface-trap and oxide-trapped charge in MOS polysilicon gate capacitors has been investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Reevaluation of Worst-Case Postirradiation Response for Hardened MOS Transistors
TL;DR: In this paper, the worst-case postirradiation response of Sandia hardened n-channel transistors following Co-60 exposure to total dose levels of system interest is demonstrated for zerovolt bias during radiation, and positive bias during a subsequent anneal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Total-Dose Radiation and Annealing Studies: Implications for Hardness Assurance Testing
P.S. Winokur,F.W. Sexton,J.R. Schwank,Daniel M. Fleetwood,Paul V. Dressendorfer,T. F. Wrobel,D. C. Turpin +6 more
TL;DR: Findings support the proposed changes of keeping the time between irradiation and test less than 1 hour and of a more restricted range of dose rate, i.e., 100 to 300 rad(Si)/ s.
