Dy. Xu et al., TIME-DEPENDENT SOLUTION OF A FULL HYDRODYNAMIC MODEL INCLUDING CONVECTIVE TERMS AND VISCOUS EFFECT, VLSI design (Print), 6(1-4), 1998, pp. 173-176
Sub-picosecond turn-on transient behavior of ballistic diodes (N+ - N
- N+ structures) is studied by solving a system of time-dependent hydr
odynamic (HD) equations. Convective terms as well as viscous effect ar
e included in the study. The simulation result indicates that the diod
e undergoes approximately one quarter of a plasma oscillation before i
t relaxes to the steady-state value through collisions.
