Material Command
mater - get and set materials for use through out the program
Synopsis
This command allows materials to be created and listed.
solution
[add]
[list] [all] [bulk]
[name = <c>] [alias = <c>] [color = <pen color>]
Description
This command allows the user to create or list materials that have been defined. There are two main options - either list materials or add materials.
- add
- Create a new material.
- name
- The character string used for the solution. Capitalization is not ignored. "Boron" and "boron" are different. Abbreviations of the name are also not accepted.
- alias
- This allows the user to definite alternates names for materials. For example, SiO2 and Oxide are the same material but two different ways of naming it.
- list
- List all of the currently defined materials.
- all
- List all of the defined materials
- bulk
- List all of the bulk materials in the current grid.
Examples
mater add name=GaN
Create a material named GaN. This material has a parameter data base entry made for it and can now be used in any command.
mater list all
Print a list of all currently defined materials.
mater list bulk
List all materials in the current mesh.
Bugs and Missing Features
None.
Material Specification
Materials are specified the same way for all commands that require a material parameter. Materials can be constructed at the command line and their name will get added to the list of available materials. The initial default list of materials includes these:
- Gas, the default color is wheat
- Oxide, aliases to SiO2 and oxide and the default color is green
- Nitride, aliased to nitride and the default color is magenta
- Silicon, aliased to Si and silicon and the default color is purple
- Polysilicon, aliased to poly and the default color is red
- Oxynitride, default color is green
- Photoresist
- Metal, default color is blue
All material names are case sensitive, which is why aliases often have a different case.
For example:
- Oxide
- Specifies that this command should apply to the oxide material
- Silicon /Oxide or Oxide /Silicon or Oxide_Silicon or Silicon_Oxide
- Specifies that this command applies to the silicon - silicon dioxide interface material.
Note that materials specification interacts strongly with the parameter data base - names must match or short hands must have been defined.
