Self-consistent Modeling of Open Quantum Devices

Akis R., Shifren L., Ferry D.K., Arizona State University, US

In this paper, we describe a method of simulating electron transport in semiconductor devices that operate in the quantum regime. Specifically, devices formed in which the electrons are confined to two dimensions (2D) and transport [...]

Development of an FET Pressure Sensor Model and used to Predict Sensor Behaviour as a Function of Electrode Geometry

Hynes E., Elebert P., O'Neill M., Berney H., Lane W.A., Kelly G., Hill M., Analog Devices, IR

This paper presents the development and solution of a model to describe the behaviour of a surface micromachined FET pressure sensor. Initially an expression is developed to describe the radial deflection of the sensing diaphragm [...]
