Single-event charge collection is controlled by drift, diffusion and the bipolar effect. Previous work has established that the bipolar effect is significant in the p-type metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor(PMOS) in 90 nm technology and above. However, the consequences of the bipolar effect on P-hit single-event transients have still not completely been characterized in 65 nm technology. In this paper, characterization of the consequences of the bipolar effect on P-hit single-event transients is performed by heavy ion experiments in both 65 nm twin-well and triple-well complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor(CMOS) technologies. Two inverter chains with clever layout structures are explored for the characterization. Ge(linear energy transfer(LET) = 37.4 Me V cm~2/mg) and Ti(LET = 22.2 Me V cm~2/mg) particles are also employed. The experimental results show that with Ge(Ti) exposure, the average pulse reduction is 49 ps(45 ps) in triple-well CMOS technology and 42 ps(32 ps) in twin-well CMOS technology when the bipolar effect is efficiently mitigated. This characterization will provide an important reference for radiation hardening integrated circuit design.
