In this study, which is aimed at assessing a possible relationship between the recoverable and permanent components of negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) degradation, we investigate NBTI in commercial IRF9520 p-channel VDMOSFETs (vertical double diffused MOSFETs) stressed under particular pulsed bias conditions by varying the pulse on-time while keeping the off-time constant and vice versa. The stress-induced threshold voltage shifts are found to be practically independent of duty cycle when the pulse on-time is kept short or the off-time is kept long, and are found to start increasing with duty cycle only when the on-time is increased or the off-time is decreased beyond specific values. These results, which are discussed in terms of dynamic recovery effects and the mechanisms leading to NBTI degradation, point to the existence of an important correlation between the recoverable and permanent components of degradation.
