Abstract :
The characteristics of capacitance vs. bias and dissipation factor vs. bias in an irradiated MOS capacitor are examined. Experimental results indicate that the peak of the dissipation factor is not only due to the interaction between interface states and majority carriers, but also to the interaction between the space charge formed in the vicinity of the silicon-silicon-dioxide interface and the majority carriers. Measurement of dissipation factor was found to be a useful tool for evaluating radiation effects in MOS capacitors
