The generation of front and back gate interface and oxide traps due to a hot-carrier-stress in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) devices has been studied experimentally. Based on a refined forward gated-diode method, the recombination-generation currents originating from the front and back gate interface traps induced by the hot-carrier-stress are measured separately and then the front and back gate interface and oxide traps are extracted independently. The experimental results show that the front channel hot-carrier-stress results not only in strong generation of front gate interface and oxide traps, but also in significant generation of back gate interface traps. All these indicate that one channel hot-carrier-stress will lead to great damage in the opposite channel in SOI MOSFETs. These results provide a clear physical picture of the degradation of SOI MOSFETs due to the hot-carrier-stress effect.
