2022 News – Crosslight Software https://crosslight.com TCAD (Technology Computer Assisted Design) Tools For the Semiconductor Industry Fri, 21 Oct 2022 19:22:23 +0000 en-US hourly 1 v2022 Release Announcement https://crosslight.com/news-events/v2022-release-announcement/ Fri, 21 Oct 2022 19:22:23 +0000 https://crosslight.com/?p=2656 Crosslight is proud to announce new features & milestones for its upcoming v2022 release. In addition to multiple bug fixes and improvements, the following new feature/improvements were made:

  • VCSEL model for multiple tunneling junctions has been improved so that more accurate optical output can be extracted from the simulation.
  • Significant improvements in speed, accuracy, and ease of use for the microcavity FDFD model. This model is now recommended for complex VCSEL structures, including devices with multiple tunnel junctions.
  • Hot carrier injection/trap generation model for thin film transistors.
  • Updated AC models.
  • New 3D mesh generation system.

This version will be released later this year, after final testing has been completed. Customers with an up-to-date maintenance contract can contact their local sales representatives if they wish to try these new features right away.
