The computer simulations of the time dependent dielectric breakdown (TDDB) percolation path are performed for ultrathin gate oxides. With our new percolation model, an interesting and new behavior of TDDB distribution was found. Weibull slope decreases monotonously with decreasing oxide thickness, and has a gap at an oxide thickness of approximately the effective defect size. This behavior can be understood well if we consider that an overlap of two neighboring defects becomes necessary to cause a sudden breakdown when oxide thickness exceeds the effective defect size. This phenomenon is very important because Weibull slope has a large effect on device reliability.
