Abstract

The I– V characteristics of ultra-thin gate oxides under progressive breakdown (BD) show a common behavior, indicative of well-defined general physical features of the BD spot. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations give some hints about this structure and on this basis we propose a physical model of the post-BD current, which is in good agreement with data.
