Reliability of Metal Gate / High-K CMOS devices 4PM Monday, Nov 11, 2024 Golisano Hall - GOL 1710/20/30 (Cybersecurity Wing) Andreas Kerber, PhD IEEE Senior Member and Distinguished Lecturer e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Aggressively scaled transistor technologies with metal gate/high-k stacks encounter additional reliability challenges beside bias temperature instability (BTI) in PMOS and NMOS devices, time dependent dielectric breakdown and hot carrier degradation. Time-zero variability and variability induced by device aging is a growing concern which needs to be modeled using stochastic processes. The physical nature of the stochastic process remains under debate and to support model development efforts large statistical data sets are essential. In addition, self-heating during reliability testing can be observed in novel device structures like bulk FinFET, SOI FinFETs, FDSOI and gate-all-around devices and needs proper attention. Furthermore, to increase the confidence in the discrete device reliability models, device-to-circuit correlations need to be established. In this presentation we discuss how to obtain stochastic BTI data for discrete SRAM and logic device beyond 3s, address device-to-circuit correlations using ring-oscillators and explore self-heating effects in FinFET and SOI devices.
