We have investigated the dynamics of intrinsic dielectric breakdown (BD) in SiO thin films of thickness in the range 2 from 35 to 3 nm. BD is obtained under constant voltage Fowler-Nordheim stress at fields between 10 and 12.5 MV/ cm. As a function of oxide thickness we have followed with high time
A complete picture of breakdown is presented and compared with a full set of experiments. First, an analytical model for the breakdown statistics is proposed. This model is shown to have essentially the same predictive power as the percolation approach. Second, a hydrogen-based quantitative picture
