Abstract :
A novel global FDTD scheme based on drift-diffuse model of semiconductor combined alternating direction implicit finite-difference time-domain (ADI-FDTD) method is presented. Although it is some complicated, the proposed method can reduce computation time by increasing time increment. Main features of the method are demonstrated by simulation of a distributed diode switch.
