“…As with the continuous downscaling of device dimensions, variations in transistor parameters are increasing drastically and lead to unexpected reliability issues [6,7]. These issues are essentially classified to -Time-zero‖ variability issues [8] such as Line-Edge Roughness (LER), Random Dopant Fluctuations (RDFs), Metal Gate Granularity and Body Thickness Variation, that causes intra-die variations during manufacturing process, and -Time-dependent‖ variability issues that are considered to be a major source for performance degradation of scaled devices over their lifetime, such as Negative Bias Temperature Instability (NBTI) [9], Hot Carrier Injection (HCI) [10], and Time-Dependent Dielectric Breakdown (TDDB) [11] Electro-migration, Self-heating and Body Effects, these degradation mechanisms are caused by the formation of charged traps within the gate oxide layer due to the high electric field and temperature that lead to a change in the device parameters (e.g. threshold voltage, carrier mobility, drain current) over time , depending on the operating conditions and the workload over lifetime.…”
