Abstract :
A time domain technique for the combined solution of Maxwell´s equations and transport equations on an irregular grid has been developed. The code implemented has been tested against analytical models and applied to characterize EM propagation at microwave frequencies in semiconductor slab with arbitrary doping profile.
