General Overview of Device Simulation

This section includes a general discussion of the governing differential equations commonly used in semiconductor device simulation (e.g. the Poisson and continuity equations) and how they are depicted in the FLOOXS Alagator script, as well as common methods for declaring boundary and initial conditions.

1D - Introducing the grid and the basic device equations and boundary conditions

2D - Introducing advanced models for BJT's, 2DEG issues for MOS, and the Gas

3D - TecPlot, your computer's limitations, and the Quasi-Fermi Method
