Abstract

Device simulation using the drift-diffusion (DD) model has many advantages over other more complex and time-consuming methods. However, in submi-cron devices, nonstationary effects such as velocity overshoot must be included to predict device behavior accurately. We have successfully used an augmented current equation[I] to analyze submicron device characteristics. Comparisons with the Monte-Carlo (MC) method and the Hydrodynamic (HD) model are briefly examined on a test structure. Also, a hierarchical, easy-to-update DD device simulator OSMOSIS (Over-Shoot Modeling Of Semiconductor Structures) is developed not only for the augmented current equation, but also for more general use in the future.
