3.7 Conclusion

The proposed method for unified treatment of interface conditions is very useful for simulation of generic semiconductor devices and is an elegant way to handle bias dependent interface condition types. Furthermore, no distinction has to be made between heterojunction interfaces and interfaces where regions with identical material properties are joined. By transforming the equations describing the interface conditions the strong influence of the internal state of the device on the spectral condition of the equation system can be reduced and convergence is improved.
