Abstract:We discuss the application of the fullband cellular automaton (CA) method for the simulation of charge transport in several semiconductors. Basing the selection of the state after scattering on simple look-up tables, the approach is physically equivalent to the full band Monte Carlo (MC) approach but is much faster. Furthermore, the structure of the pre-tabulated transition probabilities naturally allows for an extension of the model to fully anisotropic scattering without additional computational burden.
