摘要：
Hot-carrier- induced degradation in an n-type lateral diffused metal-oxide-semiconductor (LDMOS) transistor is investigated. Based on experimental data and technology computer-aided-design simulations,hot- electron injection in the channel region is identified to be the driving force of device degradation. Since gate current (I-g) consists mainly of electron injection, Ig is found to correlate with device degradation well. Such Ig dependent device degradation suggests that Ig should be examined in evaluating the hot- carrier reliability of LDMOS transistors.
