Semiconductor device modelling

Abstract: An overview of semiconductor device modelling is presented which describes the principal methods of representing and analysing modern solid-state devices. The review deals with classical, semiclassical, particle and quantum transport methodologies and compares the relative merits of each approach. The background behind each modelling technique is briefly summarised and recent developments in each area are described. The importance of accounting for non-stationary and quantum effects in small geometry devices i… Show more

“…A quasi-two-dimensional (Q2D) modeling approach, used successfully to model compound semiconductor microwave MESFETs and HEMTs [6]- [9], achieves the simplicity, speed and robustness of physical compact models, while providing an accurate model by taking into account the most important physical phenomena occurring in the device. The two main existing approaches to modeling the intrinsic LDMOS transistor are both based on the drift-diffusion approximation (neglecting hot carriers) and centered on either the inversioncharge (IC) or surface-potential (SP) of the MOSFET channel.…”

“…Um dos modelos físicos mais utilizados consiste na resolução das equações de Poisson e da continuidade (Modelo Clássico [6]). Um método comumente utilizado na solução dessas equações consiste em suas discretizações usando o método de diferenças finitas em uma malha uniforme bidimensional.…”
