摘要
In this paper, the Oxide-Trap based on Charge-Pumping (OTCP) extraction method is extended from high frequencies (HFs) to low frequencies (LFs). As a consequence, the LF-OTCP method simultaneously senses both interface-trap and border-trap (switching oxide-trap) in charge-pumping (CP) current (I-cp) measurements. We have found that radiation-induced oxide-trap (DeltaN(ot)) is dependent on DeltaV(th) (threshold voltage shift), DeltaI(cpm,h) (augmentation of maximum CP current at high frequencies), and DeltaI(cpm,l) (augmentation of maximum CP current at low frequencies), where DeltaI(cpm,h) is caused by radiation-induced interface-trap increase (DeltaN(it)) and DeltaI(cpm,l) by both radiation-induced interface-trap and border-trap increases (DeltaN(it)) and (DeltaN(bt)), respectively. We have shown that DeltaI(cpm,l) and DeltaI(cpm,h) can be easily obtained from a vertical shift of the charge-pumping curve at low and high frequencies respectively, and DeltaV(th) from a lateral one.
