Abstract :
This paper presents a simple and efficient model for first order simulation of n-channel EPROMs programming that allows to calculate electron injection into the gate insulator of the cell transistor accounting (at first order) for both the non Maxwellian form of the electron energy distribution and the non local nature of carrier heating. The model has been implemented as a post-processor of a conventional two dimensional device simulator.
