Foreword Special Issue on Compact Modeling of Semiconductor Devices

Abstract

This Special Issue is dedicated to recent research in the field of compact modeling of semiconductor devices. This is the first J-EDS Special Issue on compact modeling. In the last years, a number of new semiconductor device structures, for electronic and photonic applications, have been developed. Compact models are needed for the incorporation of these new devices in integrated circuits. Therefore, a Special Issue was needed to present recent compact modeling solutions for semiconductor devices
