  • Abstract
    We report the thresholds for laser-induced latchup on epitaxial CMOS test structures for 600 nm and 815 nm excitation. We analyze the differences observed in terms of different latchup triggering mechanisms and compare the results with measurements of energetic particle-induced latchup.
