Intro to CHARGE Solver — Lesson 1

Solver Physics

The Lumerical CHARGE solver is a physics-based simulation tool for electrical analysis of semiconductor devices. In this video, we will introduce the basic physics formalism behind the self-consistent algorithm used in CHARGE.

Solver Modes

The CHARGE solver provides various simulation environments. In this video, you will learn about the available solver modes —  steady-state and transient — and the temperature dependence of the solver — isothermal, non-isothermal, and coupled.
