We report on the static magnetic field dependence of the random telegraph signal in a submicrometer silicon n-metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor. Using intense magnetic fields and low temperatures, we find that the characteristic time ratio changes by three orders of magnitude when the field increases from 0 to 12 T. Similar behavior is found when the static field is either in plane or perpendicular to the two-dimensional electron gas. The experimental data deviate from a pure exponential trend and can be explained by considering a model that includes the triplet state of the trapping center and the polarization of the channel electron gas.

Abstract
We report on the static magnetic field dependence of the random telegraph signal in a submicrometer silicon n-metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor. Using intense magnetic fields and low temperatures, we find that the characteristic time ratio changes by three orders of magnitude when the field increases from 0 to 12 T. Similar behavior is found when the static field is either in plane or perpendicular to the two-dimensional electron gas. The experimental data deviate from a pure exponential trend and can be explained by considering a model that includes the triplet state of the trapping center and the polarization of the channel electron gas.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
