Abstract
Hot carrier stressing has been carried out on LDD n-MOS transistors with gate overlap asymmetry, under conditions of strong source field (Vg > Vd). It is shown that, under these conditions, the device actually suffers hot carrier stressing at the source end of the transistor resulting directly from this high source field.
