Analytical model for the surface field distribution of SOI RESURF devices

An analytical model is presented to determine the electric field distribution along the semiconductor surface of silicon-on-insulator (SOI) REduced SURface Field (RESURF) devices, which allows an approximate but explicit expression for the surface field in terms of the doping concentration, the lengths of the gate and drain field plate, the thicknesses of the gate and buried oxide, and the applied voltages. Numerical simulations support the analytical results.
