ABSTRACT
The authors perform gamma ray irradiation and hot carrier stress on RH H-Gate PD (partially depleted) SOI NMOSFETs as the experimental group and commercial strip-shaped gate PD SOI NMOSFETs as the control group. They analyse HCI degradation in samples and conclude that radiation could enhance HCI degradation in RH H-gate samples. Moreover, the mechanism is explained as the coupling effect between the front gate and back gate caused by TID radiation-induced trap charges in the buried oxide.
