Output Characteristics

The use of graphene, which has high mobility of charge carriers, high thermal conductivity and a number of other positive properties, is promising for the creation of new semiconductor devices with good output characteristics. The aim was to simulate the output characteristics of field effect transistors containing graphene using the Monte-Carlo method and the Poisson equation.Two semiconductor structures in which a single layer (or monolayer) of graphene is placed on a substrate formed from 6H-SiC silicon carbide material are considered. The peculiarity of the first of them is that the contact areas of drain and source were completely located on the graphene layer, the length of which along the longitudinal coordinate was equal to the length of the substrate. The second structure differed in that the length of the graphene layer was shortened and the drain and source areas were partly located on the graphene layer and partly on the substrate.The main output characteristics of field-effect transistors based on the two semiconductor structures considered were obtained by modeling. The modeling was performed using the statistical Monte Carlo method. To perform the simulation, a computational algorithm was developed and a program of numerical simulation using the Monte-Carlo method in three-dimensional space using the Poisson equation was compiled and debugged.The results of the studies show that the development of field-effect transistors using graphene layers can improve the output characteristics – to increase the output current and transconductance, as well as the limit frequency of semiconductor structures in high frequency ranges.

Grid Based

AbstractThe paper explores the application of a lazy functional language, Haskell, to a series of grid-based scientific problems—solution of the Poisson equation, and Monte Carlo simulation of two theoretical models from statistical and particle physics. The implementations introduce certain abstractions of grid topology, making extensive use of the polymorphic features of Haskell. Updating is expressed naturally through use of infinite lists, exploiting the laziness of the language. Evolution of systems is represented by arrays of interacting streams.

AbstractIt is suggested that the outbursts of Periodic Comet Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 are triggered by impacts of interplanetary boulders on the surface of the comet’s nucleus. The existence of a cloud of such boulders in interplanetary space was predicted by Harwit (1967). We have used the hypothesis to calculate the characteristics of the outbursts – such as their mean rate, optically important dimensions of ejected debris, expansion velocity of the ejecta, maximum diameter of the expanding cloud before it fades out, and the magnitude of the accompanying orbital impulse – and found them reasonably consistent with observations, if the solid constituent of the comet is assumed in the form of a porous matrix of lowstrength meteoric material. A Monte Carlo method was applied to simulate the distributions of impacts, their directions and impact velocities.

Binding Condition

In hexagonal Se crystal each atom is covalently bound to two others to form an endless spiral chain, and in Sb crystal each atom to three others to form an extended puckered sheet. Such chains and sheets may be regarded as one- and two- dimensional molecules, respectively. In this paper we investigate the structures in amorphous state of these elements and the crystallization.HRTEM and ED images of vacuum-deposited amorphous Se and Sb films were taken with a JEM-200CX electron microscope (Cs=1.2 mm). The structure models of amorphous films were constructed on a computer by Monte Carlo method. Generated atoms were subsequently deposited on a space of 2 nm×2 nm as they fulfiled the binding condition, to form a film 5 nm thick (Fig. 1a-1c). An improvement on a previous computer program has been made as to realize the actual film formation. Radial distribution fuction (RDF) curves, ED intensities and HRTEM images for the constructed structure models were calculated, and compared with the observed ones.
