AI Thread Summary

To simulate a Gate-All-Around FET in Silvaco TCAD using HZO (Hf0.5Zr0.5O2) as an oxide gate, specific coding guidance is needed. Users are seeking assistance with the appropriate code to incorporate HZO into their simulations. Examples from Silvaco may provide insights but do not directly address the HZO integration. The discussion emphasizes the need for clear instructions or code snippets to facilitate this process. Assistance from experienced users in the community is crucial for successful simulation setup.

TL;DR Summary: Help me add hafnium zirconium oxide in Silvaco

I am trying to simulate a Gate-All-Around FET in Silvaco TCAD for my thesis but I can't figure out how to add HZO (Hf_0.5Zr_0.5O₂). I would really appreciate it if anyone could help me with the code for HZO or help me in any other way.
Thank you.

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...

Thread 'EMF (Electromagnetic Field) & EHS (Electromagnetic Hyper Sensitivity)'

Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
