  • Abstract
    The thermal oxidation model developed using SProcess TCAD SenTaurus is considered. The cone-shaped silicon needle is used as a test structure. Simulation results show that the proposed model describes the phenomenon of the needle sharpening during their thermal oxidation in accordance with the experimental data. It is shown that for adequate modeling the consideration of some nonlinear mechanical effects is required.
