Abstract :
An accurate model for the SANOS programming operation has been developed. Excellent agreement between measurements and simulations in a large range of voltages and times is obtained, taking leakage through the gate stack and Frenkel-Poole detrapping into account. The model is exploited to predict the impact of the programming conditions on the retention behavior.
