Metal-Insulator-Metal Capacitor (MIMC) reliability and electrical properties are defined by the TDDB lifetime, breakdown voltage and leakage current. This article demonstrates the correlation between these electrical properties and the physical properties of the dielectric layer. The intrinsic quality of MIMC capacitors can therefore be predicted before complete processing by measuring a physical property of the MIMC dielectric.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citationsâcitations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
