On the Inclusion of Lorentz Force Effects in TCAD Simulations

Speaker Dr. Wim Schoenmaker
Affiliation Ph. D., CTO and co-founder of MAGWEL, Belgium
Date August 19, 2010 (Thu)
Time 4:00-5:00 p.m.
Venue T6, Meng Wah Complex, HKU

Abstract:

A new implementation of the Lorentz force is presented in TCAD field solving. The method is applicable to metallic and semiconducting materials. Apart from external magnetic fields, the self-induced magnetic fields are also taken into account. The soundness of the implementation is demonstrated by comparing the numerical results with the outcomes of analytic solutions for a simple wire structure.

 

Coffee and tea will be served 20 minutes prior to the seminar.
