  • Abstract
    In this paper, effects of gamma-irradiation induced degradation of threshold voltage and gain factor in N-channel power VDMOSEFETs are analyzed. Analysis is carried out using the single-transistor mobility method of Dimitrijev and Stojadinovid (1987) and the subthreshold-midgap method of McWhorter and Winokur (1986). It is shown that gamma-irradiation induced degradation of power VDMOSFETs is due to a significant increase in oxide charge and a somewhat smaller increase of interface traps.
