A Demonstrator Platform for Coupled Multiscale Simulation

In this communication we present the CoMSON Demonstrator Platform (DP), a software tool designed to help researchers in testing and validating models and algorithms for coupled simulation of nanoelectronic circuits and devices. The structure of the DP is pre- sented with an explanation of the motivations behind the critical design choices. A multilevel simulation of a CMOS AND gate using two different coupling algorithms is provided as an application example. The example is intended to demonstrate the suitability of the DP as a flexible prototyping environment and its ability to cope with real life industrial problems. In the numerical simulations both the semi-classical Drift-Diffusion model (DD) and a Quantum Corrected DD model (QCDD) are employed and their predictions are compared.
