Abstract

Using Monte Carlo and TCAD simulation, we investigate the effect of passivating and metallization layers on low energy proton induced SEU in the commercial SRAM cell. Simulation results indicate metallization layers and tungsten contacts significantly reduce proton energy and enhance the energy distribution. Therefore, they can decrease the SEU percentage of the commercial SRAM cell.
