Calling sequence

structure{ region{ doping{ } } }

Properties
  • usage: \(\mathrm{\textcolor{Dandelion}{conditional}}\)

  • items: \(\mathrm{maximum\;1}\)

Functionality

The Figure 2.5.1 shows a 3D doping profile that is defined inside a 20 nm x 20 nm x 50 nm cube where the 50 nm are the z direction. The doping rate profile is homogeneous with respect to the (x,y) plane, it only varies along the z direction.

The doping rate profile is constant between z = 10 nm and z = 25 nm with a rate of 1 x 1018 \([1/cm^3]\). It has Gaussian shape from z = 25 nm to z = 45 nm (gaussian1D). It is zero between z = 0 nm and z = 10 nm, as well as between z = 45 nm and z = 50 nm.
