Abstract :
Based on ENDIF (ENhanced DIelectric layer Field), a new E-SIMOX high voltage device structure with the charge islands on the SOI and its breakdown mechanism proposed in this paper. The structure is characterized by the charge islands inserted on the top interface of silicon layer and dielectric layer. Inversion holes located by Coulomb´s force enhance the electric field of the dielectric layer (EI) and so increase the vertical breakdown voltage (BV). EI = 917V/¿m and VB,V = 345V is obtained by 2D simulation on a 0.375-¿m-thick dielectric layer and 2-¿m-thick top silicon layer. Voltage shared by dielectric layer is more than 95% of BV.
