Hello,
I have been trying to simulate a sonos memory. I would like to perform the erase operation by hot carrier injection.
Does anyone know how can I use the model? I have tried lucky model for this but it is not capturing correctly.
Thank you
Dear Hassan,
There exist some examples in Sentaraus examples using hot carrier injection models,;

Dear Muhammad Hamza El-Saba, Thank you so much for the answer. I am trying to simulate the device through Sentaurus. I have already checked the Silvaco examples.
Thank you.
Dear Hasan Raza
Do you search "hot carrier injection" model from manual of Senaturus Device? I think that There is this model in manual. I also try to find this model from manual. If I found I wrote that here.

Dear Jasurbek Gulomov,
I wrote GateCurrent in the physics section and that is capturing the hot carrier injection but the issue is when I am applying negative bias on the gate it is capturing electrons in the nitride layer, which is not possible.
Dear Hassan,
You'd use advanced models of hot carrier injection. They are all explained in one of my articles yete in RG. Generally speaking, the field dependent models, like Shockley ligky electron models are not physically correct, because hot carrier injection repends on the carrier energy - not the local lectric field.Choose energy transport or hydrodynamic model instead of the druft-diffusion model on yoursimulation
