The gate induced drain leakage(GIDL) current under the stress of worse case in -MOSFET's with ultrathin gate oxides has been measured and characterized. The GIDL current was shown that P-MOSFET's of the thicker gate oxide is smaller than that of the thinner gate oxide. It was the results that the this cur-rent is decreased with the increamental stress time at the same devices.It is analyzed that the formation components of GIDL current are both energy band to band tunneling at high gate-drain voltage and energy band to defect tunneling at low drain-gate voltage. The degradations of GIDL current was analyzed the mechanism of major role in the hot carriers trapping in gate oxide by on-state stress.

The device reliability in amorphous InGaZnO under NBS(Negative Bias Stress) and hot carrier stress with different gate overlap has been characterized. Amorphous InGaZnO thin film transistor has been measured. and is channel $width=104{\mu}m$, $length=10{\mu}m$ with gate overlap $length=0,1,2,3{\mu}m$. The device reliability has been analyzed by I-V characteristics. From the experiment results, threshold voltage variation has been increased with increasing of the gate overlap length after hot carrier stress. Also, threshold voltage variation has been decreased and Hump Effect has been observed later with increasing of the gate overlap length after NBS.

In this paper, we analyzed the gate current and substrate current by the hot carrier effects and restoration phenomenon of characteristics by time in the p-channel MOSFETs. The Stress voltage condition is a voltage in maximum gate current and time is 3s, 10s, 30s, l00s, 1000s, 2000s and 3000s. As results of analysis, the gate current and substrate current were decreased by stress time, and the restoration time of characteristics were shown the results that were decreased by the exponential times.

An InGaZnO thin film transistor with different gate lengths and widths have been fabricated and their device degradations with device sizes have been also performed after negative gate bias stress. The threshold voltage and subthreshold swing have been decreased with decrease of gate length. However, the threshold voltages were increased with the decrease of gate lengths. The transfer curves were negatively shifted after negative gate stress and the threshold voltage was decreased. However, the subthreshold swing was not changed after negative gate stress. This is due to the hole trapping in the gate dielectric materials. The decreases of the threshold voltage variation with the decrease of gate length and the increase of gate width were believed due to the less hole injection into gate dielectrics after a negative gate stress.

In this paper, the hysteresis characteristics by bias stress in organic thin film transistors using inkjet printing were investigated. Electron trapping increased threshold voltage for positive gate bias stress and hole trapping decreased threshold voltage for negative gate bias stress. From these phenomena, highly reproducible measurement method which minimized threshold voltage shift by choosing the proper range of gate voltage was suggested. Using this measurement method, we found that electron trapping as well as hole trapping had important influence on hysteresis characteristics.

In this paper semi empirical models are presented for the hot electron induced threshold voltage shift(${\Delta}V_{t}$) and effective channel shortening length (${\Delta}L_{H}$) in degraded PMOSFET. Trapped electron charges in gate oxide are calculated from the well known gate current model and ΔLS1HT is calculated by using trapped electron charges. (${\Delta}L_{H}$) is a function of gate stress voltage such as threshold voltage shift and degradation of drain current. From the correlation between (${\Delta}L_{H}$) has a logarithmic function of stress time. From the measured results, (${\Delta}V_{t}$) and (${\Delta}L_{H}$) are function of initial gate current and device channel length.

In this thesis, the breakdown voltage characteristics of silicon nanowire N-channel GAA MOSFETs were analyzed through experiments and 3-dimensional device simulation. GAA MOSFETs with the gate length of 250nm, the gate dielectrics thickness of 6nm and the channel width ranged from 400nm to 3.2um were used. The breakdown voltage was decreased with increasing gate voltage but it was increased at high gate voltage. The decrease of breakdown voltage with increasing channel width is believed due to the increased current gain of parasitic transistor, which was resulted from the increased potential in channel center through floating body effects. When the positive charge was trapped into the gate dielectrics after gate stress, the breakdown voltage was decreased due to the increased potential in channel center. When the negative charge was trapped into the gate dielectrics after gate stress, the breakdown voltage was increased due to the decreased potential in channel center. We confirmed that the measurement results were agreed with the device simulation results.

This work investigates the device degradation p-channel PD SOI devices at various applied voltages as well as stress temperatures with respect to Body-Contact SOI (BC-SOI) and Floating-Body SOI (FB-SOI) MOSFETs. It is observed that the drain current degradation at the gate voltage of the maximum gate current is more significant in FB-SOI devices than in BC-SOI devices. For a stress at the gate voltage of the maximum gate current and elevated temperature, it is worth noting that the $V_{PT}$ Will be decreased by the amount of the HEIP plus the temperature effects. For a stress at $V_{GS}$ = $V_{DS}$ . the drain current decreases moderately with stress time at room temperature but it decreases significantly at the elevated temperature due to the negative bias temperature instability.

Experimental results are presented for gate oxide degradation and its effect on device parameters under negative and positive bias stress conditions using NMOSFET's with 3 nm gate oxide. The degradation mechanisms are highly dependent on stress conditions. For negative gate voltage, both hole- and electron-trapping are found to dominate the reliability of gate oxide. However, with changing gate voltage polarity, the degradation becomes dominated by electron trapping. Statistical parameter variations as well as the "OFF" leakage current depend on those charge trapping. Our results therefore show that Si or O bond breakage by electron can be another origin of the investigated gate oxide degradation.gradation.

In this paper, the effects of negative and positive bias stress on p-channel poly-Si TFT's fabricated by excimer laser annealing have been investigated After positive and negative bias stress, transcon-ductance(g$_{m}$) is increased because of a reduction of the effective channel length due to the injected electron in the gate oxide. In the positive bias stress, the injection of hole is appeared after stress time of 3600sec and g$_{m}$ is decreased. On the other hand, the gate voltage at the maximum g$_{m}$, S-swing and threshold voltage(V$_{th}$) are decreased because of the interface state generation due to the injection of electrons into the gate oxide.e.ide.e.
