Semiconductor plasma analysis software 'Particle-PLUS'

basic information

**Features** - The time scheme uses an implicit method, allowing for stable time evolution calculations over a large time step Δt compared to conventional methods. - The collision reaction model between neutral gas and electrons and ions employs the Monte-Carlo Scattering method, enabling accurate and rapid calculations of complex reaction processes. - The neutral gas module determines the initial neutral gas distribution used in the above plasma module, allowing for quick evaluation of gas flow using the DSMC method. - The sputtered particle module calculates the behavior of atoms sputtered from the target in plasma and neutral gas environments, enabling quick evaluation of flux distribution on opposing substrates, such as in magnetron sputtering devices. - We not only sell software but also conduct commissioned analyses. *For other functions and details, please feel free to contact us at information@wavefront.co.jp.*
