Abstract :
In this paper we present physics based mathematical models and numerical methods for fast GPU based simulations of advanced Quantum Dot Infrared Photodetectors based on new Quantum Dot technology (QDIP-NT). Details of successful experience of CUDA-implementation for GPU-based parallelization of simulations of 3D QDIP-NT photodetector model are described, and results are analyzed and discussed.
