Analysis tool for the tunneling effect in heterojunctions.
The quantum tunneling model cannot ignore the impact on carrier transport at high doping levels. The change in aluminum composition grading allows for a pseudo quantum tunneling effect by flattening the potential barrier. However, the distance selection of the aluminum composition grading is crucial. By adding sufficiently many internal extra mesh points, effects similar to those of composition grading can be achieved. The quantum tunneling model is the most reliable method for enhancing carrier transport through quantum mechanics.
