University of Rochester
The multi-physics Sentaurus TCAD tools are advantageous in semiconductor devices modeling as compared to more generic FEM tools. We also use the generic PDK suites provided Synopsys for nanoscale CMOS technologies to access the technology parameters for cutting-edge CMOS devices, which is increasingly valuable for academic researchers after the phasing out of ITRS and industry consolidation in recent years.
