Abstract

The International Workshop on Computational Electronics covers all aspects of advanced simulation of electronic transport and optoelectronic processes in semiconductors and semiconductor devices based on both inorganic and organic materials. IWCE 2015 will feature the traditional IWCE topics in electronic transport, thermal transport, spin transport, optoelectronic processes and coupled phenomena. Additionally, we will extend the conference to topics such as first principles calculations in the context of transport studies, and novel architectures for nanodevices. The scientific program, organized in a single-session format, consists of invited lectures, contributed talks, and poster presentations.

The workshop is intended to be an international forum for discussions on the current trends and future directions of computational electronics.  The emphasis of the contributions is on interdisciplinary aspects of Computational Electronics, touching Physics, Engineering, Applied Mathematics, as well as Chemistry and Biology. Active participation of graduate students, including student presentations, is strongly encouraged.

    Online Presentations | 09 Nov 2016 | Contributor(s): Kommini Adithya, Zlatan Aksamija

    IWCE 2015 Presentation. We propose a novel approach to achieving a narrow window-shaped TDF through a combination of a step-like 2-dimensional density-of-states (DOS) and inelastic optical phonon scattering. A shift in the onset of scattering with respect to the step-like DOS creates a TDF which...

    IWCE presentation. In this paper we investigate the finite-size effect in nano-scaled graphene flakes. Improving on the bulk description, and because the structures are – atomistically speaking – large in size, we use the empirical pseudopotential method[2].
