Extraction of nitride trap density distribution in SONOS (silicon-oxide-nitride-oxide-silicon) structures based on an advanced thermal emission model — •Kerstin Bernert1, Jonas Schönlebe2, Christiane Oestreich2, and Thomas Mikolajick21Forschungszentrum Dresden-Rossendorf, Bautzner Landstraße 128, 01328 Dresden — 2Institut für Elektronik- und Sensormaterialien, Technische Universität Bergakademie Freiberg, 09599 Freiberg

As a result of continued scaling and the emphasis on low power and low voltage operation, silicon-oxide-nitride-oxide-silicon (SONOS) nonvolatile memory has received more attention recently. In this talk we investigate the charge decay characteristics of SONOS devices at elevated temperatures. Based on the thermal emission model as the dominant charge loss mechanism, the trap density energy distribution is determined. Furthermore, we present an advanced model which includes the influence of subsequent tunneling through the bottom oxide after thermal excitation in the conduction band of the nitride.
