Abstract

The article presents a critical discussion on the evaluation of the impedance field for noise analysis by means of several transport models. The models considered are the drift-diffusion model, the full hydrodynamic model, and the scattered packet method for the direct solution of the Boltzmann transport equation. The comparison is carried out on a canonical Si p+pp+ diode at ambient temperature. The agreement found between the approaches is good, thus suggesting that the evaluation of the impedance field does not require any additional care with respect to other, more conventional operating conditions.
