• Soft breakdown in MgO dielectric layers 

  Miranda, Enrique; O'Connor, Éamon; Hughes, Gregory; Casey, P.; Cherkaoui, Karim; Monaghan, Scott; Long, Rathnait D.; O'Connell, Dan; Hurley, Paul K. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2009-07-24)

  In this work, we report on the occurrence of the soft breakdown (SBD) failure mode in 20 nm-thick films of magnesium oxide (MgO) grown on Si substrates. To our knowledge, this is the first observation of this failure ...
