Comparative Analysis of Channel Length Dependence of NBTI and CHC Characteristics in PMOSFETs

Channel length dependence of NBTI (negative bias temperature instablilty) and CHC (channel hot carrier) characteristics in PMOSFET is studied. It has been considered that HC lifetime of PMOSFET is larger than NBTI lifetime. However, it is shown that CHC degradation is greater than NBTI degradation for PMOSFET with short channel length. 1/f noise and charge pumping measurement are used for analysis of these degradations.
