Optimizing a 2um, 1,500 Volt SiC Superjunction Trench-MOS Device Using TCAD

In this paper the critical design features of a SiC superjunction trench MOS device were optimized using CAD to obtain a high breakdown voltage while minimizing any unnecessary increase in channel resistance.

TCAD Simulation of CBRAM Devices

Conductive Bridge Random Access Memory (CBRAM) is a non-volatile memory device technology that can operate by consuming very low power. Another advantage of the CBRAM devices is its ability to be easily integrated into conventional back-end-of-line CMOS processes [1].

TCAD Mixed-Mode Simulation for GaN Power HEMTs in Unclamped Inductive Switching

The qualification of GaN power high-electron-mobilitytransistors (HEMTs) must consider the device ruggedness against out-of-SOA (safe operating area) events [1- 3].

Using Victory Process Open Model Interface to Customize Etch Emulation Model – Example

Dry etching is commonly used in semiconductor processing to generate deep trenches with good anisotropy. Dry etching is applied to many semiconductor technologies including Advanced FinFETs, 3D NAND, and vertical Silicon and Silicon Carbide power devices.

Victory TCAD Suite: How to use it for fast, efficient, and accurate simulation of power semiconductor devices

Silvaco TCAD has been used by Tier 1 power device manufactures and designers for decades. The introduction of Victory Process, Victory Mesh, and Victory Device significantly increases the functionality and flexibility of the tool set available to designers. In this article we look at how some of the features of this suite of tools improve the efficiency of the design flow.

Hints and Tips: Specify Units in the Victory Process Material Statement

It is crucial for any kind of calculations that units are consistent between equations and modeling modules. Often different units are used in various experimental and theoretical fields. Therefore, we have introduced standardized unit conversions, making it possible to specify any desired units when changing parameters within the MATERIAL statement.

Hints and Tips: How do I Load, Remesh, and Refine an Existing Device Structure in Victory Mesh?

Victory Mesh initially supported loading and remeshing of the saved status from Victory Process. Victory Mesh 1.5.0 onwards is now able to load and remesh individual structure files (.str files), including associated scalar fields. These include the result of a device simulation from software such as Victory Device and Atlas.
