Transition Point Consideration for Velocity Saturating Four-terminal DG MOSFET Compact Model

Nakagawa T., Sekigawa T., Tsutsumi T., Hioki M., O’uchi S., Koike H., AIST, JP

We have proposed a compact model for four-terminal DG MOSFETs based on double charge-sheet model, with the velocity saturation effect as a function of carrier density profile inside the channel, with explicit handling of drain [...]

REMD toolkit : A Composable Software to Generate Parallelized Simulation Programs

Ito M., Nagashima U., AIST, JP

We developed a toolkit to generate a replica exchange method program which is suitable to solve the multiple-minima problem that prevents the accurate estimation of thermodynamical quantities. The toolkit was designed as a set of [...]

High Speed Extraction of Process Model Parameters for 70nm Technology using a Distributed Genetic Algorithm

Murakawa M., Oda Y., Amakawa H., Baba S., Higuchi T., Nishi K., AIST, JP

In this paper, we show, for the first time, GA application to process model calibration. We propose a distributed GA based calibration technique combined with the traditional local optimization algorithm, which reduces time for calibration [...]
