Summary:The effect of the static negative bias temperature (NBT) stress on a p-channel power metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) is investigated by experiment and simulation. The time evolution of the negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) degradation has the trend predicted by the reaction-diffusion (R-D) model but with an exaggerated time scale. The phenomena of the flat-roof section are observed under various stress conditions, which can be considered as the dynamic equilibrium phase in the R-D process. Based on the simulated results, the variation of the flat-roof section with the stress condition can be explained.
