Abstract

An efficient spectral element method (SEM) with high order basis functions is proposed for the PIN diodes transient simulation based on the nonlinear drift-diffusion model. The backward difference scheme is employed to achieve the unconditional stability with a large time step increment. A PIN diode with quasi one-dimensional structure has been analyzed, and the numerical results have demonstrated the efficiency and accuracy for the proposed method.
