Abstract :
In this letter we present electrical measurements of threshold voltage on matched transistor pairs which show a channel shortening effect due to the presence of dislocations or metallic precipitates in the device. Such effects could present a limitation on the yield and performance of MOS integrated circuits employing short-channel devices.
