Recent years has seen rapid acceleration in the research and development of organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) as key components for active matrix displays, radio frequency identification tags, and many

Exact2 from Silvaco is a sophisticated, physically-based simulation tool for calculating semiconductor interconnect capacitance values. Its purpose is to build a capacitance coefficient database that is usable by any layout

This article addresses the creation of semiconductor laser double heterostructures, and the subsequent simulation of laser output with DevEdit from Silvaco. A laser consists of a gain medium sandwiched between

Computer simulation is used extensively to verify physical phenomena in semiconductor devices. Meshing plays an essential role in obtaining good simulation results. If care is not properly taken, serious errors

ATHENA’s Optolith module is designed to simulate the 3 basic lithography technologies; contact printing, proximity and projection lithography. The imaging calculations within Optolith are flexible enough to handle all three
