Mobility Modeling

Attached are pictures from a MOSFET simulation operating in the saturation region.

The simulation results are all for the same bias point using the combined electron mobility model.

The Klaassen (Philips) mobility model was implemented for doping and concentration dependence.

bulk_e

The Darwish (Lucent) model was then used to account for the mobility dependence on electric field normal to current flow.

mu_e_0

The combined mobility was then scaled by the velocity saturation and is with respect to the electric field parallel to current flow to get the final result.

vsat_e

Future work involves adapting the original Klaassen model so that it agrees with the modifications made in the Darwish paper.

The full implementation of the Klaassen model is presented here, and it tries to follow the original paper. The final mobility is placed on the edge connecting two nodes, and this is done using the geometric mean. Please let me know if you think there are any bugs in the implementation.
