Abstract

Experimental verification of substrate current characteristics is thoroughly carried out. V_DS — V_DSAT, instead of V_DS, is shown to be the driving force of all hot-electron effects. A simple relationship between substrate current and V_DS — V_DSAT is found. This relationship provides a convenient tool to characterize the substrate current or the channel electric field, and, hence, all hot-electron effects. Measurements of I_SUB/I_D and V_DS — V_DSAT at two bias points and any one channel length are sufficient to fully characterize the substrate currents for all channel lengths V_DS's and V_G's for a given technology.
