Analysis methodology for the charge pumping (CP) data, which considers non-elastic electron/hole capturing and releasing processes, is proposed. It is shown that the multiphonon-assisted rearrangement of the dielectric lattice around the traps, associated with the charge trapping, is important for the interpretation of experimental results and needs to be taken into account. Analysis of the temperature dependent multifrequency charge pumping data, measured on the MOSFETs with different thickness of the interfacial layer in the high-k dielectric gate stack, allowed to extract the trap energy and spatial profiles and helps to identify the nature of these traps.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
