Based on the continuity theorem of electric displacement including interface charges, the enhanced dielectric layer field (ENDIF) for silicon-on-insulator (SOI) high-voltage devices is proposed. The following three approaches for enhancing the dielectric layer electric field E-I to increase the vertical breakdown voltage of a device V-B,V-V are presented: 1) using a thin silicon layer with a high critical electric field E-S,E-C; 2) introducing a low-permittivity dielectric buried layer; and 3) implementing interface charges between the silicon and the dielectric layer. Considering the threshold energy of silicon epsilon(T), the formula of E-S,E-C on silicon layer thickness t(S) is first obtained, which increases sharply with a decrease of t(S), and reaches up to 141 V/mu m at t(S) = 0.1 mu m. Expressions for E-I and V-B,V-V are given, which agree well with simulative and experimental results. Based on the ENDIF, the new device structures are given, and an E-I value of 300 V/mu m has been experimentally obtained for double-sided trench SOI. Moreover, several conventional SOI devices are explained well by ENDIF.
