“15-band spectral envelope function formalism applied to broken gap tunnel field-effect transistors”. Verreck D, Van de Put ML, Verhulst AS, Sorée B, Magnus W, Dabral A, Thean A, Groeseneken G, 18th International Workshop On Computational Electronics (iwce 2015) (2015). http://doi.org/10.1109/IWCE.2015.7301988
Abstract: A carefully chosen heterostructure can significantly boost the performance of tunnel field-effect transistors (TFET). Modelling of these hetero-TFETs requires a quantum mechanical (QM) approach with an accurate band structure to allow for a correct description of band-to-band-tunneling. We have therefore developed a fully QM 2D solver, combining for the first time a full zone 15-band envelope function formalism with a spectral approach, including a heterostructure basis set transformation. Simulations of GaSb/InAs broken gap TFETs illustrate the wide body capabilities and transparant transmission analysis of the formalism.

“Analytic solution of Ando's surface roughness model with finite domain distribution functions”. Moors K, Sorée B, Magnus W, 18th International Workshop On Computational Electronics (iwce 2015) (2015)
Abstract: Ando's surface roughness model is applied to metallic nanowires and extended beyond small roughness size and infinite barrier limit approximations for the wavefunction overlaps, such as the Prange-Nee approximation. Accurate and fast simulations can still be performed without invoking these overlap approximations by averaging over roughness profiles using finite domain distribution functions to obtain an analytic solution for the scattering rates. The simulations indicate that overlap approximations, while predicting a resistivity that agrees more or less with our novel approach, poorly estimate the underlying scattering rates. All methods show that a momentum gap between left- and right-moving electrons at the Fermi level, surpassing a critical momentum gap, gives rise to a substantial decrease in resistivity.

“Modeling of inter-ribbon tunneling in graphene”. Van de Put ML, Vandenberghe WG, Magnus W, Sorée B, Fischetti MV, 18th International Workshop On Computational Electronics (iwce 2015) (2015)
Abstract: The tunneling current between two crossed graphene ribbons is described invoking the empirical pseudopotential approximation and the Bardeen transfer Hamiltonian method. Results indicate that the density of states is the most important factor determining the tunneling current between small (similar to nm) ribbons. The quasi-one dimensional nature of graphene nanoribbons is shown to result in resonant tunneling.

“Process variability in Cu2ZnSnSe4 solar cell devices: Electrical and structural investigations”. Brammertz G, Buffiere M, Verbist C, Bekaert J, Batuk M, Hadermann J, et al, The conference record of the IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference
T2 –, IEEE 42nd Photovoltaic Specialist Conference (PVSC), JUN 14-19, 2015, New Orleans, LA (2015)
Abstract: We have fabricated 9.7% efficient Cu2ZnSnSe4/CdS/ZnO solar cells by H2Se selenization of sequentially sputtered metal layers. Despite the good efficiency obtained, process control appears to be difficult. In the present contribution we compare the electrical and physical properties of two devices with nominal same fabrication procedure, but 1% and 9.7% power conversion efficiency respectively. We identify the problem of the lower performing device to be the segregation of ZnSe phases at the backside of the sample. This ZnSe seems to be the reason for the strong bias dependent photocurrent observed in the lower performing devices, as it adds a potential barrier for carrier collection. The reason for the different behavior of the two nominally same devices is not fully understood, but speculated to be related to sputtering variability.
