What it is about

You learn how quantum effects in nanoscale devices are described and how to apply suitable numerical methods to simulate such systems. Topics range from the Schrödinger equation and its numerical treatment to quantum transport simulations. In the end you can formulate physical models and solve them numerically as well as develop simple own simulation codes.

What you will be able to do

  • apply physical models for quantum nanoelectronic devices
  • apply numerical methods to solve the model equations
  • develop simple numerical codes for modeling

What the module consists of

  • Vorlesung mit ÜbungenVermittlung der theoretischen Grundlagen und interaktive Diskussionen
  • ComputerübungenAnwendung der Methoden durch Programmieraufgaben in Einzel- und Gruppenarbeit
  • Take-home-ProjektEntwicklung eines numerischen Codes als eigenständige Übung

Teaching method

  • Frontalvorlesung mit interaktiven Diskussionenzum Vermitteln des theoretischen Hintergrunds
  • Computerbasierte Übungen und Demonstrationenzur Vertiefung durch praktische Programmieraufgaben
  • Take-home-Projektzur eigenständigen Umsetzung und Festigung der numerischen Methoden
