  • A 2D-simulation using a quantum model of silicon nanowire (SiNW) field-effect transistors (FETs) have been performed by the effective mass theory. We have investigated very close for real device analysis, so we used to the non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) and the density gradient of quantum model. We investigated I-V characteristics curve and C-V characteristics curve of the channel thickness from 5nm to 200nm. As a result of simulation, even higher drain current in SiNW using a quantum model was observed than in SiNW using a non-quantum model. The reason of higher drain current can be explained by the quantum confinement effect.

  • In this paper, we report our quantum mechanical approach for the analysis of FinFET in a self-consistent manner. The simulation results are carefully investigated for FinFET with an electrical channel length(Leff) of 30nm and with a fin thickness(Tsi) of 10~35nm. We also demonstrated the differences in the simulations for the classical and quantum-mechanical simulation approaches, respectively. These simulation results also imply that it is necessary to solve the coupled Poisson and Schrodinger equations in a self-consistent manner for analyzing the sub-30nm MOSFETS including FinFET.

  • For the simulation of active region in the quantum cascade lasers (QCL), we solved Schrodinger equation utilizing Runge-Kutta method and Shotting method. Wavelength, phonon resonant energy, and dipole matrix element were simulated with the variation of active region thickness. As a result of such simulation, it was suggested the tolerance range of epi-layer thickness error when 3-quantum well QCL structures are grown.

  • In this work, we demonstrate the modelling and simulation of the AlGaAs/GaAs quantum-well based light emitting transistor(LET). Based on the experimental and theoretical model, we have compared between a heterojunction bipolar transistor(HBT) structure with quantum wells in the base region and a HBT without quantum wells in the base region. For the purpose of optimizing device design, several analytic and numerical studies have been presented.

  • Quantum dots were designed within a GRIN-SCH(Graded index - Separate confinement Heterostructure) heterostructure to create a high power InAlAs/AlGaAs laser diode. 808 nm light emission was with a quantum dot composition of In0.665Al0.335As and wetting layer composition of Al0.2Ga0.8As by LASTIP simulation software. Typical characteristics of GRIN structures such as high confinement ratios and Gaussian beam profiles were shown to still apply when quantum dots are used as the active media. With a dot density of 1.0x1011 dots/cm2, two quantum dot layers were found to be good enough for low threshold, high-power laser applications.

  • This paper introduces an online experiment environment based on a computational science platform that can be used for various purposes ranging from basic education to quantum chemistry and professional quantum chemistry research. The simulation environment was constructed using a simulation workbench and simulation workflow, which are execution environment services of Science App provided by the computational science platform. We developed an environment in which learners can learn independently without an instructor by selecting experiment topics that can be used in various areas of chemistry, and offering the learning materials of the topics in a form of e-learning content that includes theory and simulation exercises. To verify the superiority of the proposed system, it was compared with WebMO, a state-of-the-art web-based quantum chemistry simulation service.

  • With an increasing potential to realize quantum computer, it has recently been an important issue to extend the capabilities of RF cavities to maintain longer coherent quantum system. Using superconductors instead of normal metals allows the quantum system to have a substantially enhanced quality factor. In this paper, surface impedances of superconducting cavities are calculated by the Mattis-Bardeen theory with Python & MATLAB programs. With a simulation of electromagnetic field distribution, the sensitivity to dielectric and surface losses of the superconducting cavities are determined. Then calculations of the resonance frequency and quality factor of three-dimensional superconducting resonators made of Al or Nb are discussed.

  • Part of the channel in L-shaped tunnel field-effect transistor (LTFET) is very thin and suffers from quantum confinement effect. Role of quantum confinement effect on band-to-band-tunneling (BTBT) of LTFET was investigated using numerical simulation and band diagram analysis. It was found that quantum confinement effect significantly affects the BTBT mechanism of LTFET devices.

  • The trend of x-ray image sensor has been evolved from an amorphous silicon sensor to a crystal silicon sensor. A crystal silicon X-ray sensor, meaning a X-ray CIS (CMOS image sensor), is consisted of three transistors (Trs), i.e., a Reset Transistor, a Source Follower and a Select Transistor, and a photodiode. They are highly sensitive to radiation exposure. As the frequency of exposure to radiation increases, the quality of the imaging device dramatically decreases. The most well known effects of a X-ray CIS due to the radiation damage are increments in the reset voltage and dark currents. In this study, a pixel array of a X-ray CIS was made of $20{\times}20pixels$ and this pixel array was exposed to a high radiation dose. The radiation source was Co-60 and the total radiation dose was increased from 1 to 9 kGy with a step of 1 kGy. We irradiated the small pixel array to get the increments data of the reset voltage and the dark currents. Also, we simulated the radiation effects of the pixel by MCNP (Monte Carlo N-Particle) simulation. From the comparison of actual data and simulation data, the most affected location could be determined and the cause of the increments of the reset voltage and dark current could be found.
