AbstractThe low voltage substrate current (Ib) has been studied based on generation kinetics and used as a monitor of interface states (Nit) generation for ultra-thin oxide n-MOSFETs under constant voltage stress. It is found that the low voltage Ibis formed by electrons tunnelling through interface states, and the variations of Ib($\Delta$Ib) are proportional to variations of Nit ($\Delta$Nit). The Nitenergy distributions were determined by differentiating Nit(Vg). The results have been compared with that measured by using gate diode technique.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
