Episode Synopsis "Lecture 6: Quantum Transport in Nanoscale FETs"

The previous lessons developed an analytical (or almost analytical) theory of the nanoscale FET, but to properly treat all the details, rigorous computer simulations are necessary. This lecture presents quantum transport simulations that display the internal physics of nanoscale MOSFETs. We use these results to elucidate the physics discussed in previous lessons and to identify issues that still need to be clarified.
