Abstract

Electron trapping in implanted oxides has been investigated using avalanche electron injection on a silicon/oxide/silicon capacitor structure. Analysis of the capacitance/voltage curves yields capture cross sections of 8 x 10-15 and 1 x 10-16 cm2. Moreover, we show that as the structure is sensitive to surface potential changes at both oxide/silicon interfaces, the technique permits the density and the centroid of the trapped charge to be determined independently.
