A simple new method based on the measurement of charge pumping technique is proposed to separate and quantify experimentally the effects of oxide-trapped charges and interface-trapped charges on threshold voltage degradation in p-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (pMOSFETs) under hot-carrier stress.Further,the experimental results verify the validness of this method.It is shown that,all three mechanisms of electron trapping effect,hole trapping effect and interface trap generation play important roles in p-channel MOSFETs degradation.It is noted that interface-trapped charge is still the dominant mechanism for hot-carrier-induced degradation in p-channel MOSFETs,while a significant contribution of oxide-trapped charge to threshold voltage is demonstrated and quantified.
