Electro-Thermal Scaling Properties of Electron Devices: A Multi-Scale Monte Carlo Approach

Abstract

The research will be divided into separate thrusts to be integrated at the conclusion of the effort. Two thrusts extend the CMC modeling capabilities on the opposite end of the simulation space: the microscopic interactions between charge carriers (electrons) and heat carriers (phonons). The CAD tool will be used to simulate critical experiments and phonon engineered device concepts that can be validated through experiments to show that the internal energy paths of an RF device can be manipulated to increase performance as a design parameter.
