Abstract
In this study we report for the first time results on neutral electron trap generation in reoxidised nitrided oxide dielectrics under variou s radiation doses and bias conditions and compare the results with the conventional oxides. We see very little electron trap creation in RNO dielectrics for radiation doses upto 5 Mrad (Si) and for bias fields up to +/-2.5 MV/cm. We explain our results in RNO and oxide dielectric s using a three step defect creation model.
