Device degradation due to hot-carrier in n-channel HEXFETs is shown to be related tothe device geometrical structure. The form of I-V characteristics of the body-drainjunction is found dependent of the hot-carrier stressing and of the layer dimensions. Alarge increases of the ideality factor, of the reverse recombination current, and of theseries resistance are shown to be more significant for small values of L and W. It isdemonstrated that the degradation of parameters is mainly caused by the generation ofinterface traps
