Anomalous random telegraph noise in nanoscale transistors as direct evidence of two metastable states of oxide traps

Abstract In this paper, a new pattern of anomalous random telegraph noise (RTN), named “reversal RTN” (rRTN) induced by single oxide trap, is observed in the drain current of nanoscale metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) with high-k gate dielectrics. Under each gate voltage,...
