In the sixth session, Dr. Gerhard Klimeck will give a brief overview of ABACUS and demonstrate the MOS Capacitor Lab. Students can experiment with the fundamental component of a MOSfet that is any computer chip. Students can explore the high and low frequency response of n-type and p-type MOS capacitors as a function of doping and structural parameters such as oxide thickness, dielectric constants, and semiconductor thickness. Students can also explore sophisticated effects such as surface charges, oxide charges and minority carrier lifetimes. MOS-Capacitor-Lab is powered by the industrial tool PADRE which was used at Bell Labs to design transistors.
