This work presents a new analytical model for low frequency Charge Pumping measurements on SONOS memory cells. The charge per cycle that recombines into the nitride layer and its frequency dependence allow us to study the spatial distribution of nitride traps. Experimental results agree with reported nitride trap concentrations and show an interface between the nitride and the silicon substrate in good agreement with TEM pictures of the SONOS devices.

Abstract

This work presents a new analytical model for low frequency Charge Pumping measurements on SONOS memory cells. The charge per cycle that recombines into the nitride layer and its frequency dependence allow us to study the spatial distribution of nitride traps. Experimental results agree with reported nitride trap concentrations and show an interface between the nitride and the silicon substrate in good agreement with TEM pictures of the SONOS devices.
