Every software package contains a full set of examples suitable for that version and are installed with the software. If you see examples here that are not in your installation you should consider updating to a later version of the software. These examples can be used by beginners and advanced users for product evaluation, teaching purposes, and self-training.

Required Modules

Victory Device

• 3D Simulator
• 3D Optical

This example demonstrates:
How to define an optical source that has a small signal ac optical component.

This input file analyses the small signal response of a 3D device to a small signal optical source.

The beam section of the file defines the optical. The applied bias to the cathode contact is then increased to 2 V with no applied light.

The next section defines an optical source intensity of 1 mW/cm^2 and a small signal response of the device to this optical source is extracted for each decade in frequency between 0.1 MHz and 100GHz inclusive. The full AC terminal characteristics are saved in the log file.

When the results are viewed in Victory Visual it shows that the device has a cutoff frequency of about 1 GHz.
