Abstract

This project aims at modelling and characterizing semiconductor devices using TCAD tools.  The objective is to analyze a single device in terms of process and physics related parameters, characterize its electrical performance, and provide a model for the design and optimization of such devices for MMIC applications.  The simulated I-V data can be used to compare with experimental data, and to extract parameters for circuit simulation.  Through the project, the students will gain fundamental knowledge in modern microwave device design using state-of-the-art simulation tools.
