Abstract
The origin of the substrate hole currents after oxide breakdown is investigated using photon emission microscopy and spectral analysis of light which is emitted from the breakdown spots. It is demonstrated that, under positive gate bias, impact ionization of the electrons in the substrate is the dominant source of the substrate hole current and the light emission.
