摘要
This paper examines in detail the phenomenon of Substrate Enhanced Electron Injection (SEEI, [1, 2]). By using floating gate devices less aggressively scaled than the MOSFETs of [1] we are able to: 1) develop criteria to separate SEEI from the coexisting channel hot electron (CHE) injection; 2) point out a direct proportionality between the gate (I-G) and the substrate (I-B) currents that provides a signature of SEEI; 3) reconcile SEEI with reported mechanisms of optical minority carrier generation in the substrate [3, 4].
