Which risk increases when embedded gate oxide capacitors in MOSFETs degrade?

💡 Explanation

Gate oxide degradation leads to charge trapping, causing threshold voltage INSTABILITY because the effective gate voltage shifts through charge accumulation. Therefore, threshold voltage shift emerges rather than acoustic waves or altered carrier mobilities due to dielectric wear.
