Schred calculates the envelope wavefunctions and the corresponding bound-state energies in a typical MOS (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) or SOS (Semiconductor-Oxide-Semiconductor) structure and a typical SOI (semiconductor-Oxide_Insulator) structure by solving self-consistently the one-dimensional (1D) Poisson equation and the 1D Schrodinger equation.
