Hot-Carrier-Induced Degradation and Optimization for Lateral DMOS With Split-STI-Structure in the Drift Region
IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices(2019)
摘要
The lateral double-diffusion MOS with split shallow trench isolation structure (split-STI LDMOS) in the drift region has been investigated under two hot-carrier stresses including the maximum bulk current stress (
${I}_{\text {bulkmax}}$
) and maximum operating gate stress (
${V}_{\text {gmax}}$
). For the
${I}_{\text {bulkmax}}$
stress condition, the main damage point causing the degradation of
${R}_{ \mathrm{\scriptscriptstyle ON}}$
is found at the STI corner closest to the source with the interface state generation. In addition, the hot hole injection is found at the edge of the shrinking poly-gate region. For the
${V}_{\text {gmax}}$
stress condition, the main damage point causing the degradation of
${R}_{ \mathrm{\scriptscriptstyle ON}}$
is found at the two STI corners with interface state generation. Due to the more serious degradation of
${R}_{ \mathrm{\scriptscriptstyle ON}}$
, the
${I}_{\text {bulkmax}}$
stress condition is regarded as the worst-case stress condition. The novel structure with the H-shape STI in the drift region is proposed. It is demonstrated that the H-shape STI structure is effectively helpful to alleviate the hot-carrier degradation without altering the tradeoff between the OFF-state breakdown voltage and specific ON-resistance.
