-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora EPEL Update Notification FEDORA-EPEL-2011-5159 2011-12-04 19:22:48 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : archimedes Product : Fedora EPEL 6 Version : 2.0.0 Release : 1.el6 URL : http://www.gnu.org/software/archimedes/ Summary : 2D Quantum Monte Carlo simulator for semiconductor devices Description : Archimedes is a package for the design and simulation of submicron semiconductor devices. It is a 2D Fast Monte Carlo simulator which can take into account all the relevant quantum effects, thank to the implementation of the Bohm effective potential method.
The physics and geometry of a general device is introduced by typing a simple script, which makes, in this sense, Archimedes a powerful tool for the simulation of quite general semiconductor devices.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
Since last FEL release, archimedes entails the following changes:
- The material parameters have been checked and modified - Benchmark tests were carried out to check the validity of the framework - Scattering phonons can be set to ON or OFF - Support for Full band approach was implemented - Parabolic, Kane and Full bank verified - Full band parameters supports for all materials - Initial implementation of FEM for Poisson - Quantum Effective Potential modified - Bohm Potential Model was implemented - Calibrated Bohm Potential Model was implemented - Density Gradient corrected and tested - Full effective potential model was implemented
