2-d and 3-d model for contact resistance of M/n-Si (book?)

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the search for literature regarding the modeling of contact resistance, specifically 1-D and 2-D models. Participants mention that existing resources, including works by Donald Neaman, SMZ, and Kanos, lack relevant information. A recommended book is "Electrical Contacts and Contact Materials" by Robert H. Dauskardt, which provides valuable insights into contact resistance and various modeling techniques. The need for comprehensive resources on this topic is evident among students and researchers.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of contact resistance principles
  • Familiarity with electrical contact materials
  • Basic knowledge of modeling techniques in electrical engineering
  • Experience with academic research methodologies
NEXT STEPS
  • Research "Electrical Contacts and Contact Materials" by Robert H. Dauskardt for detailed modeling techniques
  • Explore advanced modeling techniques for contact resistance in semiconductor devices
  • Investigate academic papers on 1-D and 2-D models for contact resistance
  • Learn about simulation tools used for modeling contact resistance in electronic components
USEFUL FOR

Students, researchers, and professionals in electrical engineering, particularly those focused on semiconductor technology and contact resistance modeling.

Hi,
We're studying Contact resistance and the professor has given assignments on contact resistance. But I can't find any books to refer to. Here is one sample question:

The books I'm referring to are ones by Donald Neaman, SMZ, Kanos. but none of them have any mention of 1-d or 2-d model for contact resistance. Even the professor hasn't given much stuff about them on pdf.

I used google but couldn't find anything. Can someone suggest any books where I can find material on modelling for contact resistance extraction?

One book that I found helpful is "Electrical Contacts and Contact Materials" by Robert H. Dauskardt. It has some good information on contact resistance and the different models used to calculate them.
