Abstract
LDD MOSFET simulation is performed by directly solving the Boltzmann T ransport Equation for electrons, the Hole-Current Continuity Equation and the Poisson Equation self-consistently. The spherical harmonic exp ansion method is employed along with a new Scharfetter-Gummel like dis cretization of the Boltzmann equation. The solution efficiently provid es the distribution function, electrostatic potential, and the hole co ncentration for the entire 2-D MOSFET.
