最近因为肺炎的缘故,宅在家里不能出门,就翻了下一些资料,刚好研究方向是这个,就简单研究了下。参考资料主要如下:
1.《半导体工艺和器件仿真软件Silvaco TCAD实用教程》 唐龙谷 2014
2.《长安大学 半导体工艺与器件仿真指导书》 张林 2015
引用本科时社团一姐的一句话:学习PS的精髓在于毁图。个人浅见,学习仿真的话还是要根据实例拆解分析比较快。重复,我是新手,只是个人浅见。

tftex10.in : Amorphous IGZO TFT Simulation:
# (c) Silvaco Inc., 2019
# This example demonstrates simulation of amorphous IGZO (indium galium
# zinc oxide) TFT. Here we reproduce the results from:
#
# Fung, T., Chuang, C., Chen, C., Katsumi, A., Cottle, R., Townsend, M.,
# Kumomi, H., and Kanicki, J., "Two-dimensional numerical simulation of
# radio frequency sputter amorphous In-Ga-Zn-O thin-film transistors",
# J. Appl. Phys., V. 106, pp. 084511-1 through 084511-10.
#
# Comparisons with experiment are included.
#
# This first part of the input deck simulates Id-Vg.

官网给出的四张输出图像如下:
自己装的ATLAS还有点问题,这几天先折腾下在跑跑看。
不过毕竟是引用了别人的文献中的数据,与实验室的材料特性还有较大差距,估计要手调了。
总体来说,ATLAS的步骤主要为:
建立网格-定义材料-定义电极以及接触-定义缺陷分布或掺杂-引入模型以及求解方法-求解-Tonyplot输出
要解决的难点主要在于:
1.材料特性微调;
2.缺陷分布调整;
3.理解输出语句,并合理运用;
武汉加油!
