Abstract :
New analysis methods useful for understanding both complex waveforms and statistical behaviors of Random Telegraph Noise (RTN) are proposed. Complex waveforms are clearly visualized using Time Lag Plots. Bias dependence of statistically extracted average trap number is discussed, with emphasis on the importance of undetectable traps on product reliability.
