This book surveys the advanced simulation methods needed for proper modeling of state-of-the-art nanoscale devices. It systematically describes theoretical approaches and the numerical solutions that are used in explaining the operation of both power devices as well as nano-scale devices. It clearly explains for what types of devices a particular method is suitable, which is the most critical point that a researcher faces and has to decide upon when modeling semiconductor devices.

Classical Device Modeling.- Quantum and Coulomb Effects in Nano Devices.- Semiclassical and Quantum Electronic Transport in Nanometer-Scale Structures: Empirical Psuedopotential Band-Structure, Monte Carlo Simulations and Pauli Master Equation.- Quantum Master Equations in Electronic Transport.- Wigner Functions Method.- Simulating Transport in Nanodevices Using the Usuki Method.- Atomistic Simulations.

Provides a thorough overview of the methodologies that have been used in modeling longer channel length, nanoscale devices, are currently being used in understanding the operation and in design of nanoscale devices and should be used in design of ultra small scale future technology devices Offers expert guidance as to which modeling methods are most appropriate, given particular application types Includes systematic and detailed coverage of modeling with particle-based simulations, density matrix method, Wigner function approach, Greenâ€™s functions approach, and atomistic simulations Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
