抄録

We studied local leakage currents induced in stressed gate SiO2 films and their time dependence by conductive atomic force microscopy (C-AFM). The current-voltage characteristics of the leakage currents detected in the C-AFM observations indicate Fowler-Nordheim tunneling currents enhanced by holes trapped in the stressed SiO2 films. By repeated C-AFM observations at the same area, it was found that individual spot currents decrease at different rates. This result indicates hole detrapping with different time constants from the stress-induced defects that have different features.
