Abstract :
The rapid development and miniaturization of devices necessitate the resolution of Schrodinger-Poisson equations to provide an accurate description of the carrier confinement in heterojunction devices. We have solved Schrodinger´s and Poisson´s equations iteratively using a nodal finite element formulation. This formulation allows us to obtain the quantified electron energy states using the real device geometry
