Abstract

In this paper we investigate the electrostatics and charge transport in a triplegate Silicon Nanowire transistor. The quantum confinement in the transversal dimension of the wire have been tackled using the Schrödinger equation in the Effective Mass Approximation coupled to the Poisson equation. This system have been solved efficiently using a Variational Method. The charge transport along the longitudinal dimension of the wire has been considered using the semiclassical approximation, in the ballistic regime.
