Abstract :
New short channel effects with nitride-oxide gate MOSFETs were found, where threshold voltage reduction occurs in a relatively long channel region. These effects would be explained by trapped charges or interface states induced by the mechanical stress at the Si and the nitride-oxide gate film in the course of the heat process.
