GEODESIC: A New and Extensible Geometry Tool and Framework with Application to MEMS

Wilson N., Wang K., Yergeau D., Dutton R.W., Stanford University, US

This paper will detail the capabilities of a new geometric modeling tool, called Geodesic, which is being released in source code form to the general community. In addition to providing geometric operations to create geometry [...]

A Novel Method to Utilize Existing TCAD Tools to Build Accurate Geometry Required for MEMS Simulation

Wilson N.M., Liang S., Pinsky P.M., Dutton R.W., Stanford University, US

This paper details a technique that exploits domain decom-position and utilizes a combination of 1-D, 2-D, and 3-D process simulation to build physically accurate geometry of micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) for simula-tion. The size and aspect [...]
