摘要
We present an original approach to including quantum transport into classical Ensemble Monte Carlo (EMC) simulations. The method, based on the Wigner transport equation, is fully self-consistent, and includes impurity and phonon scattering according to the Fermi Golden rule. It is inspired by an approach suggested by Shifren et al. [IEEE Trans. Electron Dev. 50, 769 (2003)], with some major improvements that make possible successful comparison with other simulation techniques and experiments.
