Metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors(MOSFETs)fabricated using various combinations of lightly-doped-drain(LDD)spacer materials(e.g.Si_3N_4 versus SiO_2)and inter-metal-dielectric(IMD)materials(e.g.silane versus tetraethoxysilane plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition oxide)were used to investigate the effect of IMD materials and nitride spacers on MOSFET degradation under hot carrier stress. According to the results, nitride spacers significantly enhance the hot-carrier reliability of nMOSFETs ; however, the water-blocking property of nitride spacers fails to eliminate the IMD-induced device degradation. For pMOSFETs, there is negligible difference in hot carrier immunity between devices with oxide and nitride spacers.
