This repository includes MATLAB files and datasets related to publication:S. Vecchi, A. Padovani, P. Pavan and F. M. Puglisi, "The Major Effect of Trapped Charge on Dielectric Breakdown Dynamics and Lifetime Estimation," 2023 IEEE International Integrated Reliability Workshop (IIRW), South Lake Tahoe, CA, USA, 2023, pp. 1-7, doi: 10.1109/IIRW59383.2023.10477693.

In this repository you will find two folders with MATLAB workspaces containing:

Current vs time: Data related to the current vs. time simulated traces in Fig. 7a, including the ON and OFF cases (i.e, considering or not considering the trapped charge term in the Poisson equation). A .m script is included to automatically plot the traces as in Fig. 7a. A .fig file for Fig. 7a is included as well.

Weibull plot: Data related to the TDDB distributions in Fig. 7b, including the ON and OFF cases (i.e, considering or not considering the trapped charge term in the Poisson equation). A .m script is included to automatically plot the distributions as in Fig. 7b. A .fig file for Fig. 7b is included as well. This folder includes also a subfolder named Eth with data related to the TDDB distributions in Fig. 9b, including the ON and OFF cases (i.e, considering or not considering the trapped charge term in the Poisson equation). A .m script is included to automatically plot the distributions as in Fig. 9b. A .fig file for Fig. 9b is included as well.
