Modeling the voltage nonlinearity of high-k MIM capacitors
نویسندگان
چکیده
Voltage nonlinearity is a crucial performance parameter of MIM capacitors for RF, analog and mixed signal IC applications. In present work, the fabrication and characterization of anodic high-k MIM capacitors are reported in detail and modeling of nonlinearity coefficient of capacitance is developed using polarization of induced dipoles. The model agrees with experimental results for various high-k dielectric MIM capacitors. It explores the origin of nonlinearity in capacitance–voltage characteristics of MIM capacitors and also predicts the potential requirements to meet the ITRS requirements. 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

In this paper, a series Z-source inverter based on switched inductors cell is proposed for the first time. This inverter is able to increase the voltage gain in comparison to the conventional Z–source inverters in additon to solve the ST (shoot-through) state’s problems. In this inverter, the value of voltage gain is increased by increasing the number of used diodes and inductors in the switche...

In this study, we demonstrate the stability of highLa2O3 metal–insulator–metal (MIM) capacitors under constant voltage stress (CVS). It was found that the variation in capacitance caused by CVS strongly depends on the injected charges regardless of stress biases. Furthermore, the quadratic voltage coefficient of capacitance ( ) decreases with a logarithmic increase in dielectric loss. Charge tr...
