Numerical Analysis of QDD Equation †
The quantum hydrodynamic(QHD) model, which is available for modeling of carrier transport in semiconductors at the room temperature, is derived from a Chapman-Enskog expansion of the Wigner-Boltzmann equation adding a collision term. The quantum drift-diffusion(QDD) and quantum energy transport(QET) models are further derived by the diffusion scaling of the OHD models and hence the QDD model is viewed as one of the hierarchy of QHD models as a generalization of the classical drift-diffusion(DD) model. The numerical methods for the QDD and QET equations are a major concern to realize advanced device models in TCAD(Technology Computer-Aided Design).
We develop numerical schemes and iterative solution methods, studying numerical approximation and existence of solutions to semiconductor transport equations and numerically motivated solution maps of the equation system. The numerical methods developed in our work include high-accuracy nonlinear schemes, a high-resolution method for quantum confinement transport, a positivity-preserving iterative method, and adaptive time discretization for a transient QDD model. These numerical schemes are also applied to develop numerical methods for quantum energy transport(QET)models.
