Study of the Thermoelectric Properties of Non-Typical Semiconductor Materials with Conventional CAD Tools
Computer-aided design (CAD) simulation tools
offer the advantage of integrating both thermal and
electrical simulations facilitating the study of new
materials and structures. In this work, we demonstrate
the possibility of using conventional electron devices
simulation tools to study the thermoelectrical properties
of non-typical semiconductor materials, which allows
to do predictive parametric analysis of novel device
structures without costly experiments. This is illustrated
without loss of generality for scandium nitride and
strontium titanate. The simulated results are in good
agreement with those reported in the literature.
