Abstract
The analysis of the carrier-carrier scattering is getting more important and it can be done by the particle-particle-particle-mesh (P3M) algorithm. A problematic part of the algorithm is to avoid double-counting of the pair forces in short-range. Here, we solve the problem by introducing an efficient numerical method to the algorithm. The improvements in accuracy and applicability are confirmed with various test cases. In addition, the modified P3M method is integrated with a 3D ensemble Monte Carlo (EMC) simulator and applied to the device simulations. The results are compared with those of the PM (particle-mesh)-EMC approach, which reveals the limitations of the scattering rate based methods and the importance of the P3M method to treat carrier interactions.
