"This letter investigates a hump in gate current after dynamic negative bias stress (NBS) in HfxZr1-xO2/metal gate p-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors. By measuring gate current under initial through body floating and source/drain floating, it shows that hole current flows from source/drain. The fitting of gate current-gate voltage characteristic curve demonstrates that Frenkel-Poole mechanism dominates the conduction. Next, by fitting the gate current after dynamic NBS, in the order of Frenkel-Poole then tunneling, the Frenkel-Poole mechanism can be confirmed. These phenomena can be attributed to hole trapping in high-k bulk and the electric field formula Ehigh-k epsilon(high-k) = Q + E-sio2 epsilon(sio2). (C) 2012 American Institute of Physics.

This letter investigates anomalous traps measured by charge pumping technique in high voltage in HfO2/metal gate n-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors. N-V-high level characteristic curves with different duty ratios indicate that the electron discharge time dominates the value of N for extra traps. By fitting ln (N (t(base level) = 2.5 mu s)-N (t(base level)))-Delta t(base level) at different temperatures and computing the equation t = tau(0) exp (alpha(e,SiO2)d(SiO2) + alpha(e,HfO2)d(HfO2,trap)), results show that these extra traps measured by the charge pumping technique at high voltage can be attributed to high-k bulk shallow traps.
