摘要
This paper analyzes how body bias and BOX region thickness affect soft error rates in 65-nm SOTB (Silicon on Thin BOX) and 28-nm UTBB (Ultra Thin Body and BOX) FD-SOI processes. Soft errors are induced by alpha-particle and neutron irradiation and the results are then analyzed by Monte Carlo based simulation using PHITS-TCAD. The alpha-particle-induced single event upset (SEU) cross-section and neutron-induced soft error rate (SER) obtained by simulation are consistent with measurement results. We clarify that SERs decreased in response to an increase in the BOX thickness for SOTB while SERs in UTBB are independent of BOX thickness. We also discover SOTB develops a higher tolerance to soft errors when reverse body bias is applied while UTBB become more susceptible
