Device modeling in the Wigner picture Computational aspects

چکیده
Basic computational aspects of the Wigner function approach for modeling and simulation of electronic transport are discussed, beginning with the coherent problem, followed by the dissipative problem including scattering events, which has been recently restated in terms of a scattering-induced Wigner function correction. These alternative formulations of the computational task are discussed along with a method for separation of the Wigner potential into classical (force) and quantum components.

Applied Bias Slewing in Transient Wigner Function Simulation of Resonant Tunneling Diodes
The Wigner function formulation of quantum mechanics has shown much promise as a basis for accurately modeling quantum electronic devices, especially under transient conditions. In this work, we demonstrate the importance of using a finite applied bias slew rate (as opposed to instantaneous switching) to better approximate experimental device conditions, and thus to produce more accurate transi...
متن کاملComputational Electronics on GRID: A Mixed Mode Carrier Transport Model
The nano-era of semiconductor electronics introduces the necessity of simulation methods which describe the electron transport in ultra-small devices in a mixed mode where quantumcoherent processes are considered along with the de-coherence processes of scattering. The latter can be conveniently described in the Wigner picture of quantum mechanics, however the coherent counterpart gives rise to...

These measurements will help to develop suitable mathematical models representing abdominal tissue. A 1-DOF portable robot...
متن کاملA Non-Markovian Phase Space Approach to Schrödinger Dynamics: The Space-Time Wigner Transform
A phase space description of Schrödinger dynamics is provided in terms of a quantum kinetic formalism relying on the introduction of an appropriate extension of the well-known Wigner transform, also accounting for time delocalizations. This “space-time Wigner distribution,” built up in the framework of two-time correlation functions, is shown to be governed by a non-Markovian, integro-different...
متن کاملMultiphase flow and tromp curve simulation of dense medium cyclones using Computational Fluid Dynamics
Dense Medium Cyclone is a high capacity device that is widely used in coal preparation. It is simple in design but the swirling turbulent flow, the presence of medium and coal with different density and size fraction and the presence of the air-core make the flow pattern in DMCs complex. In this article the flow pattern simulation of DMC is performed with computational fluid dynamics and Fluent...
