Use the Semiconductor Equilibrium () study and study step to compute the semiconductor solution assuming the system is under thermal equilibrium. The study consists of a single Semiconductor Equilibrium step. The Semiconductor Equilibrium study step assumes that the charge carriers are in thermal equilibrium, so it only solves Poisson’s equation (while still taking into account the space charge density from the charge carriers and the ionized dopants). This provides the most efficient solution for systems known to be in equilibrium, as well as an option to generate the initial condition for solving nonequilibrium models. The settings are similar to those for a Stationary study step. Note that all metal contacts attached to the same Semiconductor Material Model feature are biased at a common voltage, as dictated by the equilibrium condition. See Semiconductor Equilibrium Study Settings in the Semiconductor Module User’s Guide on how to set the common bias voltage. This study is available with the Semiconductor interface in the Semiconductor Module.
