  • Experimental research of single-event-transient (SET) is carried out by means of pulse laser and heavy ion irradiation on the inverter chain fabricated by 130 nm bulk silicon process. The impacts of laser energy, heavy ion linear energy transfer (LET), and PMOS gate length on the characteristics of SET pulse width were analyzed. Experimental results of heavy ion and laser are similar, and both results show that the pulse width of SET increases with laser energy/LET raise, and the distribution of SET pulse width has double (or multiple) peaks, but the number of SET generated in the circuit increases first and then decreases. In addition, the experimental results show that, under different laser energy/LET, the size of PMOS gate length affects the characteristics of SET differently. At low laser energy/LET, the circuit with larger PMOS gate length produces a wider SET pulse, and on the contrary, at high laser energy/LET, the circuit with smaller PMOS gate length produces a wider SET pulse. Through the analysis of the experimental results, it is found that the parasitic bipolar amplification effect may be the main cause of the difference of SET characteristics with high energy/LET irradiation.
