Wigner function approach to nano device simulation
Coherent transport in mesoscopic devices is well described by the Schrödinger equation supplemented by open boundary conditions. When electronic devices are operated at room temperature, however, a realistic transport model needs to include carrier scattering. In this work, the kinetic equation for the Wigner function is employed as a model for dissipative quantum transport. Carrier scattering ...
متن کاملWigner Function-Based Simulation of Quantum Transport in Scaled DG-MOSFETs Using a Monte Carlo Method
Source-to-drain tunneling in deca-nanometer double-gate MOSFETs is studied using a Monte Carlo solver for the Wigner transport equation. This approach allows the effect of scattering to be included. The subband structure is calculated by means of post-processing results from the device simulator Minimos-NT, and the contribution of the lowest subband is determined by the quantum transport simula...

متن کاملUltrafast Wigner transport in quantum wires
Two quantum-kinetic models, governing the transport of an initial highly non-equilibrium carrier distribution generated locally in a nanowire, are explored. Dissipation processes due to phonons govern the carrier relaxation, which at early stages of the evolution is characterized by the lack of energy conservation in the collisions. The models are analyzed and approached numerically by a backwa...
