Bulk Monte Carlo Code Described
Teaching Materials | 01 Jul 2008 | Contributor(s):: Dragica Vasileska
In this tutorial we give implementation details for the bulk Monte Carlo code for calculating the electron drift velocity, velocity-field characteristics and average carrier energy in bulk GaAs materials. Identical concepts with minor details apply to the development of a bulk Monte Carlo code...

Quantum-Mechanical Reflections in Nanodevices: an Exercise
Teaching Materials | 02 Jul 2008 | Contributor(s):: Dragica Vasileska, Gerhard Klimeck
This exercise points out to the fact that quantum-mechanical reflections are going to be significant in nanoscale devices and proper modeling of these device structures must take into consideration the quantum-mechanical reflections. NSF, ONR Dragica Vasileska personal web-site...

Periodic Potentials and Bandstructure: an Exercise
Teaching Materials | 02 Jul 2008 | Contributor(s):: Dragica Vasileska, Gerhard Klimeck
This exercise teaches the students that in the case of strong coupling between the neighboring wells in square and Coulomb periodic potential wells electrons start to behave as free electrons and the gaps that open at the Brillouin zone boundaries become smaller and smaller (thus recovering the...

From 1 well to 2 wells to 5 wells to periodic potentials: an Exercise
Teaching Materials | 02 Jul 2008 | Contributor(s):: Dragica Vasileska, Gerhard Klimeck
This exercise demonstrates that the interaction between the wells lifts the degeneracy of the quasi-bound states and if in the limit we have infinite periodic potential it leads to formation of energy bands. Notice that when the interaction is less strong the energy levels are more sharp and...

Exercise: CV curves for MOS capacitors
Teaching Materials | 02 Jul 2008 | Contributor(s):: Dragica Vasileska, Gerhard Klimeck
This exercise demonstrates to the students how the low-frequency CV curves in MOS capacitors change with changing the gate workfunction, the oxide thickness and the dielectric constant. It also demonstrates the doping variation of the high-frequency CV curves.NSFNSF
