Abstract :
The new technique for determining the probability of hot-electron travel through the gate oxide is presented. The technique is based on the Monte Carlo method and is used in MOSFET gate current modelling. The calculated values of gate current are compared with experimental results from direct measurements on MOSFET test chips.
