Description
In this course, the Quantum ATK software is taught. Simulation of quantum devices is necessary for the design and analysis of nano-electronic devices. Quantum ATK can do this task well. This software provides you with a set of unique tools to create and simulate atomic structures. This software has a very strong and comprehensive tools, plugins and database that has many molecules and crystals in it. In this course, we will train how to use these tools.
The quantum ATK software calculations are divided into two main parts. Bulk calculation and another device calculation. First, we describe the bulk calculations and then we explain device calculation.
We do calculations such as bandstructure analysis, optimization, current-voltage characteristics, relaxation analysis, density of states, and transmission spectrum calculation. We use and explain different examples to learn about different tools and different calculations. Examples such as p-n junction diode, Silicon nanowire FET, tunneling transistor, and molecular device.
At the end of this course, you will have a complete understanding on quantum ATK...
