Abstract
The buildup of positive oxide charge and interface trap charge, due to Fowler-Nordheim stress, is observed in the gate-drain overlap region of the MOSFET, Results from gate-to-drain capacitance and charge pumpi ng current show a steady increase in positive charge near the anode in terface. Interface trap generation becomes significant when injected e lectron fluence exceeds similar to 10(14) cm(-2), and dominates net ch arge creation at higher fluence.
