In modern electronic devices, a variety of novel materials have been introduced such as transition metal oxides, chalcogenides, ferroelectric, and magnetic materials. The electrical response of such materials, used also as active layers, is strongly affected by atomic defects, which affect device performances, variability, and reliability. Extracting the defect properties (i.e., density, energy, and atomic nature) is, thus, crucial to both engineer the performances of electron devices and correctly project their scaling potential and reliability. In this paper, we propose a simple method to extract the atomic properties of defects from the thermal activation energy of the leakage current using a charge trapping relaxation model.

Abstract

In modern electronic devices, a variety of novel materials have been introduced such as transition metal oxides, chalcogenides, ferroelectric, and magnetic materials. The electrical response of such materials, used also as active layers, is strongly affected by atomic defects, which affect device performances, variability, and reliability. Extracting the defect properties (i.e., density, energy, and atomic nature) is, thus, crucial to both engineer the performances of electron devices and correctly project their scaling potential and reliability. In this paper, we propose a simple method to extract the atomic properties of defects from the thermal activation energy of the leakage current using a charge trapping relaxation model.
