Title:
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR EVALUATING SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE, AND COMPUTER-READABLE RECORD MEDIUM WITH SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE EVALUATION PROGRAM RECORDED
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3692005
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve convergence and calculation speed when introducing quantum effect to a device simulator that is a semiconductor device-evaluating apparatus.
SOLUTION: In this semiconductor device-valuation apparatus, expressions are solved, where the expressions include the Poisson equation, current continuation expression of electron concentration and hole concentration, and a current density expression that is the auxiliary expression of the current continuation expression, and self-non-contradictory potential and electron concentration and hole concentration are obtained. In this case, for adding the quantum effect to the semiconductor device valuation device, a means is provided, where the means uses quantum correction potential that is function of electron concentration for solving the current density expression, and the electron concentration is, furthermore, set to a function for satisfying the Schroedinger's equation.
