Description of the invention () Field of invention: (Please read the notes on the back before filling out this page) The present invention relates to a gate-to-substrate (Gate-to- Body) current measurement method, especially with respect to a partially empty (PartiaUy Depleted; PD) MOS device with a floating body (PartiaUy Depleted; PD) with silicon (SO) on its insulating layer, with its gate to the base The current measurement method is used to accurately measure the gate-to-substrate current of pD s0 IM〇s to accurately optimize the M 0 S element. Background of the Invention: In recent years, semiconductor components have been widely used in the fields of industry, commerce, home, communication, transportation and power. In the next few decades, electronic components will all develop toward miniaturization, integrated circuitization, and the characteristics of low operating voltage, low power consumption, and two operating powers. With the development of semiconductor process technology, the size of semiconductor components is getting smaller and smaller, making the line size into the sub-micro or even the deep sub-micron (Deep Sub_Micr〇) of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Intellectual Property Bureau employees consumer cooperatives printed制 Sphere. As a result of the continuous stacking of components in a limited space, when semiconductor components enter the field of deep sub-microns, in order to improve the operating efficiency of integrated circuits and the consideration of the area occupied by the components, the size of the components must be greatly reduced, so various semiconductors The accuracy required for design and manufacturing processes is increasing. This paper is in accordance with the Standard for Timely Home Care (CNS) A4, Lai 546484 A7 ____B7 _ V. Description of the invention () The circuit produced by the SOI process technology has fast speed, low power consumption, and low-level components. ) Small and strong anti-radiation ability, and can be compatible with the existing VLSI technology and other advantages, so that many circuits based on the S 01 process technology developed rapidly. In the MOS device structure using the SOI process technology, there is a buried oxide layer on the Shixi substrate, and a thin film (often a silicon film) on the buried oxide layer. With the difference in film thickness, SOI MOS devices can be roughly divided into two types: thick film devices and thin film devices. The film thickness of a thick film element is relatively large, so the film is depleted only in the upper part near the gate oxide, and the lower part is maintained as an electrically neutral region. This structure of the MOS device Therefore, it is called that there is a silicon MOS (PD SOI MOS) on a part of the empty insulating layer. In thin film elements, the film is completely empty, so the thin film element is called Fully Empty (Fully

However, due to the incomplete dissociation of the PD SOI MOS thin film, the thin film below its empty region will have an electrically neutral region (Neutral Region), and most of the PD SOI MOS device structure, because of buried oxide Layer and lack of body contact, so PD SOI MOS This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 specifications (210 X 297 gong) 546484 Printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau Staff Consumer Cooperatives of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Λ7 B7 V. Invention Note () There will be more serious problems such as Floating Body Effect, Parasitic Bipolar Device, and the empty area in the film is easily affected by the source and drain, so PD The secondary effect of soI MOS is more serious. In addition, 'advanced process technology, some technologies used to increase the speed of components and circuits', such as the use of metal ribbons (such as pOlyCide, etc.), shorter channels, thinner gate oxide, etc. Various deep sub-micron components in integrated circuits exhibit different transient phenomena or transient properties, so the precise transient characteristics of components during the design process are not easy to grasp. In particular, when the gate oxide layer of the M 0 S element becomes thinner and thinner (for example, less than 2 5 Α), the gate leakage current becomes more serious, so the tunneling current from the gate to the substrate (Tunneling Current) 'The substrate voltage of a floating substrate MOS device (Flo at ingBodyMOS Device) with a thin gate oxide layer will have a direct effect', for example, the substrate voltage can be changed by about 0.2 volts to about .0.4 volts, thereby making the drain electrode The current produces about 5% to about by. The unequal variation 'seriously affects the voltages between the gate, source, and three poles of the floating base MOS device and their related transient characteristics, and then affects the accuracy of the circuit operation. However, it is very difficult to directly measure the gate-to-substrate tunneling current (leakage current) and its related effects on the floating substrate MOS device.

Description of the invention () The base MOS device lacks the base contact, and compared with other currents in the device, such as the gate-to-channel current, the gate-to-source current and the gate-to-drain The current between the electrode and the substrate is very small, so it is difficult to distinguish between them for measurement. Only by using simulation software (such as T-CAD, SPICE, etc.), the gate to the substrate of the floating substrate MOS device can be measured. Rough simulation analysis and estimation of the current between them to make design adjustments. Purpose and summary of the invention: In view of the above background of the invention, 'the size of current semiconductor process components is getting smaller and smaller, so regardless of the fabrication of the components the amount The degree of difficulty has doubled, but the characteristics of accurate measurement components are measured in order to perform circuit analysis. The gate oxide layer of the MOS device becomes thinner and thinner, and the gate becomes less severe.
