Controlling Scheme of the Device Simulator Minimos-nt

چکیده
State-of-the-art TCAD applications like the multidimensional device simulator MINIMOS-NT require a huge number of different information in addition to the device input data. This information is normally hierarchically structured and covers, e.g., simulation parameters, parameter dependencies, models and their parameters, material information, or circuit descriptions. Therefore, the control system of modern TCAD applications must handle several complex different tasks in an efficient and comfortable manner. To obtain a maximum of flexibility and controllability a new specialized object-oriented database is used.

St Ate-of-the-art Micro Materials Models in Minimos-nt
Considerable effort was spent on our two-dimensional device simulator MINIMOS-NT to get it ready for simulation of devices with high complexity in respect to materials, geometries, etc. Many of the existing physical models (band gap, mobility, thermal conductivity, energy relaxation times, specific heat, etc.) were refined, some of them were replaced by promising new ones, and many new models w...

This paper will provide information on the features of the new device simulator MINIMOS KT and demonstrate its efficiency in transient simulation of con~plex device structures. An example will indicate the feasibility of such simulations even on a workstation.
متن کاملA Dopant-Dependent Band Gap Narrowing Model Application for Bipolar Device Simulation
We present a new band gap narrowing model which considers the semiconductor material and the dopant species for arbitrary finite temperatures. This unified treatment is especially useful for accurate device simulation. As a particular example we studied with our two-dimensional device simulator MINIMOS-NT the electrical behavior of a graded composition Si/SiGc HBT using a hydrodynamic transport...

State-of-the-art TCAD software like the multi-dimensional device and circuit simulator MINIMOSNT require a huge amount of information in addition to the device input data to control several different complex modules and tasks. This information is normally hierarchically structured containing arbitrary cross-relations and dependencies that include, e.g., material properties, circuit descriptions...
متن کاملInfluence of the Gate Recess on the Performance of Enhancement-Mode AlGaN/GaN HEMTs
After the excellent performance achieved by normally-on AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs), research focus has shifted to normallyoff structures. We explore the advantages offered by the recessed-gate technique using our two-dimensional device/circuit simulator Minimos-NT. Excellent agreement with experimental data is achieved, and theoretical AC performance for different rece...
