  • Abstract
    Based on the so-called defect-centric statistics, we propose the average impact of a single charged trap on FET threshold voltage as a physically based measure of the random component of time-dependent variability. We show that it can be extracted using matched pairs, analogously to time-zero variability. To that end, the defect-centric statistics of matched pairs are discussed and the correlation between time-zero and time-dependent variances is formalized.
