Device simulation with Silvaco ATLAS

AI Thread Summary
To simulate interface traps in a power MOSFET using Silvaco ATLAS, adding a sheet charge at the interface is recommended, which is managed through boundary conditions. Users with older versions of ATLAS may face challenges, such as the inability to utilize a self-created SPECT file as an input. Assistance is sought for plotting the electroluminescence (EL) of the organic04 example. The discussion highlights the need for specific guidance on input file compatibility and simulation parameters. Effective simulation requires understanding the tool's capabilities and limitations regarding interface traps and file formats.

How can I give interface traps while simulating a power MOSFET in Silvaco ATLAS tool?
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
One way to simulate interface traps in silvaco is to add a sheet charge at the interface. This is controlled by the boundary conditions defined at the interface.
 
i have an old version of atlas and it dosent have spectrum library so i create a SPECT file myself but i can't use it as an input file,please help me, i want to plot EL of organic04 example
 

Thread 'What happens if shielded cable has a short to the shield?'

While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...

Thread 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...

Thread 'Question about bonding ground and neutral'

I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
