摘要: Based on percolation theory and random telegraph signal (RTS) noise generation mechanism, a numerical model for RTS in deep submicron metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) was presented,with which the dependence of ${\tau_{\rm c} }/ {\tau_\e }$ (where $\tau_{\rm c} $=capture time, $\tau_\e$=emission period ) on energy levels and trap depth with respect to the interface of traps can be simulated. Compared with experimental results, the simulated ones showed a good qualitative agreement.

Abstract: Based on percolation theory and random telegraph signal (RTS) noise generation mechanism, a numerical model for RTS in deep submicron metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) was presented,with which the dependence of $\tau_{\rm c}/\tau_{\rm e}$ (where $\tau_{\rm c}$=capture time, $\tau_{\rm e}$=emission period ) on energy levels and trap depth with respect to the interface of traps can be simulated. Compared with experimental results, the simulated ones showed a good qualitative agreement.

Key words: MOSFET, RTS noise, $\tau_{\rm c}/\tau_{\rm e}$, percolation, model
