  • Abstract
    The effects of radiation-induced interfacial charges on the inversion-layer hole mobility in p-channel power MOSFETs at room temperature and 77 K are investigated. The mobility degradation is more pronounced at 77 K than at room temperature due to an increased importance of Coulomb scattering from interfacial charges when the phonon scattering is reduced. The radiation-induced mobility degradation is primarily due to interface traps
