[23p-E307-14] Effect of Percolation Path for Random Variability in Bulk MOSFETs at Cryogenic Temperature
Keywords:MOSFET, Cryogenic temperature, Variability
Threshold voltage (VTH) variability of bulk MOSFETs was measured at room temperature (RT) and 4K. It is newly found that the temperature dependences of VTHEX (defined by extrapolation) and VTHC (defined by constant current) show different behaviors and the percolation path in the channel, which is caused by potential valley due to random dopant fluctuations (RDF), affects the temperature dependence of VTHC. The reasons for these phenomena are reported.
