  • Abstract
    Hot carrier effects are thoroughly investigated in deep submicrometre N-channel SOI MOSFETs using photon emission measurements. The maximal photon number (Nph) is obtained for the lower gate bias in the case of a sufficiently high drain voltage and/or small gate length. For low Vd and/or long channels, Nph is maximum around Vg≃Vd/2. These results are in agreement with those obtained in hot-carrier-induced degradations
