Description

The research work shall deal with the development of numerical methods for multi-physics TCAD simulations aimed at efficiently modeling charge transport, Joule heating mechanical deformations and ion migration in electronic devices such as MOS transistors and NAND memories.The researcher will focus on efficient functional iterative techniques to solve the nonlinearities in the model equations, on robust space discretization methods and on effective meshing techniques, including anisotropic mesh adaptation.All techniques will be implemented within the in-house TCAD simulator of Micron Techmology.
