Popis: The physical mechanism responsible for negative bias temperature instability (NBTI), which is basic to the minimization of this degradation mode, is investigated, and an analytical model is developed accordingly. Experiments with 1.7 nm to 3.3 nm gate dielectrics fabricated by different processes demonstrate the capability of the proposed model.
