Abstract
The variations of single event transient (SET) pulse width of high-LET heavy ion irradiation in 16-nm-thick bulk silicon fin field-effect transistor (FinFET) inverter chains with different driven strengths are measured at different temperatures. Three-dimensional (3D) technology computer-aided design simulations are carried out to study the SET pulse width and saturation current varying with temperature. Experimental and simulation results indicate that the increase in temperature will enhance the parasitic bipolar effect of bulk FinFET technology, resulting in the increase of SET pulse width. On the other hand, the increase of inverter driven strength will change the layout topology, which has a complex influence on the SET temperature effects of FinFET inverter chains. The experimental and simulation results show that the device with the strongest driven strength has the least dependence on temperature.
