Three-Dimensional Simulation of Semiconductor Devices

Booknews

An overview of the problems and practices involved in expanding the modeling of semiconductors from two-dimensional--now a standard engineering procedure for predicting the devices' electrical behavior--to three dimensions. Reviews the classical semiconductor equations and the physical models used in device simulation, then describes the discretization and some numerical methods for solving the differential equations required by three dimensions. For advanced graduates and professionals in physics and electrical engineering. No index. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
