摘要
Comparing the characteristics of gate voltage shift (delta V-gw) to Time-Dependent Dielectric Breakdown (i.e., TDDB), it is shown that both gate voltage shift (delta V-gw) and TDDB are of a single mode in Weibull distribution, field acceleration factor and thermal activation energy are similar. Qualitatively, gate voltage shift and TDDB are caused by the same mechanism. Thus, the characteristics of TDDB can be manifested by the characteristics of V, degradation. The extrapolated lifetime from "E" model is more reasonable than that from "1/E" model. Like the lifetime extrapolation for TDDB, "1/E" model significantly overestimates the oxide lifetime.
