摘要: This paper deals with the leakage current variation occurring in Al/HfYO x /GaAs capacitors subjected to constant electrical stress. It is shown that current-time characteristic of such structures follows a power-law logistic model arises from an extension Curie-von Schweidler law. The proposed based on equivalent circuit representation degraded structure which series and parallel resistances play fundamental role.
