The study presents the results of developing a combined TCAD-SPICE model of the behavior of CMOS memory cells under space impact conditions. The study analyzes both degradation from prolonged cosmic radiation and single-event upsets (SEUs) caused by high-energy particle strikes, which can flip memory states in space-based electronics. The dependence of SEU hardness on cell ...

С уменьшением размеров транзисторов возникают условия, когда удар одной частицы затрагивает сразу несколько транзисторов в составе ячейки памяти. Вследствие этого при моделировании недостаточно учитывать один транзистор, в который непосредственно попадает частица. В работе рассмотрена полноразмерная 3D-модель двух n-канальных транзисторов, являющихся частью 6T-ячейки памяти, в которую ударяет заряженная частица. Предложен способ моделирования удара частицы, который позволяет ...

The transition from planar MOSFET structures to 3D FinFET structures provides resistance to various types of radiation. However, the characteristics of irradiated devices created at different manufacturers differ significantly, and it is rather difficult to explain the dependence of the radiation resistance of FinFE-T structures on variations in their physical and topological parameters and electrical ...

При переходе от планарных структур MOSFET к трехмерным структурам FinFET обеспечивается стойкость к разным видам облучения. Однако характеристики облученных приборов, созданных на разных предприятиях-изготовителях, существенно различаются, и объяснить зависимость радиационной стойкости структур FinFET от вариаций их физико-топологических параметров и электрических режимов достаточно сложно. В работе разработана радиационная версия TCAD-модели МОП-транзистора со структурой FinFET на объемном ...
