Abstract
We present a thermodynamic approach to introducing quantum corrections to the classical transport picture in semiconductor device simulation. This approach leads to a modified Boltzmann equation with a quantum corrected force term and to quantum corrected fluid, or quantum hydrodynamic models. We present the quantum interaction of electrons with a gate oxide barrier potential and quantum hydrodynamic simulations of a resonant tunneling diode as application examples.
