摘要
In this paper a practical characterization methodology for inter-poly oxides is described. Three different inter-poly oxides were tested, characterized and compared. The test included Constant Voltage Stress (CVS) and Ramped Voltage Stress (RVP) measurements on small area capacitors and only RVS on large area capacitors. It is confirmed that the 1/E Berkeley model is suitable for inter-poly oxide characterization. A method for the prediction of the failure probability from RVS data of large area capacitors at operating conditions is demonstrated on the basis of the 1/E model for the comparison of the inter-poly oxides.
