Abstract
The radiation induced front channel threshold voltage shift (Delta V-t 1) of fully-depleted MOSFETs fabricated in SIMOX is investigated and a nalyzed as a function of power supply voltage (V-DD) from 5.5 to 1.2 v olts. This work shows that the expected improvement in front channel r adiation hardness by reducing V-DD is not fully realized due to 1) a r adiation induced off-set voltage at V-DD = 0 V, and 2) enhanced coupli ng of the buried oxide charge to the front channel.
