In general the inim grid neecls modification at some biases in order to meet an allowable amount of discretization error. After each nonlinear solve. the grid is adapted - locally refin4umfined - and the solution is recomputed, using the final grid at each condition as an iiiiual estimate for the next. The key ID implementing an robust and efficient scheme is the selection of a proper error indlicator. We have found for instance that the local truncation error (LTE) is extremely poor as it frequently misses the proper regions to refine. Comparison of results on a linearly doped diode before and after refinement using LE and any estimate based on the solution elm (figure 4) show that LTE does not achieve the expected h2 (4X) reduction in error, due to the fact that it is non-’zero only at the ends of the space-charge region and where l for the standard box method, we solve 3x3 linear systems for the coefficients of quadratic basis functions. We note that, since the usual ScharfetterCummel discretization does not quite fit into a Galierkin hierarchy. special cam must be taken with the continuity equations; see 141. The calculations are completely vector/parallel and are a negligible expense. The advantage of BW is illustrated by the Poisson solution to a reverse biased p+n &ode (figure 6). The actual error extends throughout the depletion region, whereas the BW estimate is only large in the vicinity of the junction. However, both lead to a 4X reduction in error after refinement, although the BW estimate adds 25X less gnd points. l?re key observation is that the actual solution error can be influenced in regions not needing refinement by errors made some distance away. Furthmore, the actual error is often extremely expensive to estimate. The remaining CMOS grids (figures 6-8) show selected results ol adaptive refinmentslunrefinements at points in IV continuation simulation [5].

Figure 8, a point in the on-state, has completely unrefined dd junctions due to high-level injection, and the resulting carrier plasma butts against the substrate: the large difference in tub potentials sets up a barrier on the right,, including a point of near singularity at the n+ tub contact The average number of gnd points required to trace the IV curve to 5OmV accuracy in poten~tials is ~1700 using full adaption, and the overhead versus knowing the actual grid a priori is about 50%.

A formal object-oriented approach to the data structuring and data management of semiconductor wafer structure and device information is presented. The profile in- terchange format (PIF) is extended beyond a file format "in- tersite" version in order to enhance the storage and access of profile information, the communication of profile information between cooperating tools, and the integration and portability of technology CAD tools. An intertool PIF toolkit is a program- matic interface to profile information, consisting of a library of objects for the storage and manipulation of data by technology CAD (TCAD) tools. PIF/Gestalt is presented as a test imple- mentation of the toolkit which provides C and Common Lisp language interfaces, implemented on a data base for use in a CADKIM system for semiconductor process design and fab- rication. Test applications using PIF/Gestalt demonstrate the desirability of the formal object model, the appropriateness of an object-oriented interface, and implementation of that model on an object-oriented data base.

An efficient method for the simulation of EPROM programming based on hydrodynamic calculations of electron energy within the device, is described. After the nonMaxwellian energy distribution is calculated, an expression for injected gate current is integrated to find the total gate charge and hence the threshold voltage shift, as a function of time. Comparison of theoretical and experimental results for actual EPROM programming validates this method.
