Model pathway diagrams for the representation of mathematical models

Mathematical models are the foundation of numerical simulation of optoelectronic devices. We present a concept for a machine-actionable as well as human-understandable representation of the mathematical knowledge they contain and the domain-specific knowledge they are based on. We propose to use theory graphs to formalize mathematical models and model pathway diagrams to visualize them. We illustrate our approach by application to the van Roosbroeck system describing the carrier transport in semiconductors by drift and diffusion. We introduce an approach for the block-based composition of models from simpler components.

Reproducible and comprehensible research results through persistently linked and visualized numerical simulation data

The demand of reproducible results in the numerical simulation of optoelectronic devices or more general in mathematical modeling and simulation requires the (long-term) accessibility of data and software that were used to generate those results. Moreover, data visualizations such as videos are useful to present those results in a comprehensible manner. Persistent identifiers can be used to ensure the permanent connection of these different digital objects thereby preserving all information in the right context. Here we give an overview over the state-of-the art of data preservation, data and software citation and illustrate the benefits and opportunities of enhancing publications with visual simulation data by showing a use case from optoelectronics.

Introduction to the Issue on Numerical Simulation of Optoelectronic Devices

The Guest Editors introduce the IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics (JSTQE) issue on numerical simulation of optoelectronic devices. The complexity of physical mechanisms within such devices makes computer simulation an essential tool for performance analysis and design optimization. Modeling and simulation of electronic and photonic devices, respectively, are well developed but separate research areas. The specific challenge of optoelectronic device simulation lies in the combination of photonics and electronics, including the sophisticated interaction of photons and electrons. The tremendous interest in this field is underscored by the overwhelming number of about 200 submissions received for this issue. Since the available space is limited to about 50 papers, the editors had the unfortunate duty of setting firm boundaries for this issue and rejecting many submissions, most of which they hope will find their way into other journals. This issue reflects the broad spectrum of modern optoelectronic device concepts and applications, as well as the large diversity of theoretical and numerical approaches in optoelectronics. Ten invited papers and 34 contributed papers are included that cover laser diodes, amplifiers, modulators, optoelectronic circuits, light-emitting diodes, photodetectors, solar cells, as well as an inspiring variety of new concepts. Many of these devices employ nanostructures and some are based on novel materials such as organic semiconductors.

Introduction to the OQE special issue on numerical simulation of optoelectronic devices NUSOD’12

This special issue ofOptical andQuantumElectronics contains a selection of papers that were presented at the 13th International Conference on Numerical Simulation of Optoelectronic Devices (NUSOD) in Vancouver, Canada, August 19–22 2013. NUSOD’13 was chaired by Lukas Chrostowski from the University of British Columbia, Canada and Joachim Piprek, NUSOD Institute, USA. The purpose of the NUSOD Conference is to provide a forum for scientists from research labs around the world to discuss the recent advances in the modelling of optoelectronic devices. This year the main topics included numerical modelling of light emitting diodes, photo-detectors, photonic crystal fibres, propagation of ultra-short optical pulses, photovoltaic and optical integrated devices. The papers collected in this special issue of Optical and Quantum Electronics provide a comprehensive representation of the topics discussed at the conference. The editorswish to thank all contributing authors for careful preparation of themanuscripts and the reviewers for their work and timely response. We now look forward to NUSOD’14 that will take place in Palma de Mallorca, Spain, September 1–4, 2014.
