Atom-to-Circuit Simulation Framework
A multiscale simulation framework is being developed to extract physical properties from atomistic-level simulations and integrate them into device- and circuit-level modeling.
Atomisitc simulation: Density functional theory (DFT), Tight-binding etc.
TCAD-to-SPICE: From TCAD (device) to circuit-level simulation
