Abstract :
Self-consistent ensemble Monte Carlo technique has been employed to obtain the velocity profiles for the n+-n-n+ structure. The simulator solves the Poisson equation at regular time intervals to update the electric field distribution and uses cloud-in-cell method for charge assignment. This report presents the parallel implementation of the device simulation on 9000/AA platform of CDAC. A linear speedup has been realised on an 8-node machine
