InGaAs nanowire (NW) gate-all-around (GAA) MOSFETs exhibit superior radiation hardness compared to planar devices and FinFETs, benefitting from reduced gate-oxide electric fields. Applied gate bias during irradiation, channel thickness, presence or absence of a forming gas anneal can strongly affect NW device hardness. Low-frequency noise measurements are carried out probe near-interfacial oxide-trap (border-trap) densities, TCAD simulations performed assist in understanding the charge...

While two-dimensional (2D) hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is emerging as an atomically thin and dangling bond-free insulating layer for next-generation electronics optoelectronics, its practical implementation into miniaturized integrated circuits has been significantly limited due to difficulties in large-scale growth directly on epitaxial semiconductor wafers.

The density of traps at the top interface is difficult to assess in advanced SOI MOSFETs with high-K dielectric and ultrathin film. Searching for a characterization strategy, we compare various approaches: front-channel subthreshold slope, back-channel coupling coefficient between front back channels. slope shows largest variation trap density. However, resolution may not be sufficient very thin buried oxide.
