Abstract

We present a three‐dimensional (3D) semi‐classical ensemble Monte Carlo model newly developed to simulate a variety of nanoelectronic devices. The characteristics of the 3D model are compared with the widely used two‐dimensional (2D) models. The advantages of our model, in terms of accuracy in modelling the physics behind the operation of nanodevices, are presented by applying it to T‐branch junctions based on InGaAs/InAlAs heterostructures. Simulation of a T‐branch junction with a Schottky gate terminal is presented, using both 2D and 3D models, demonstrating the necessity of using 3D simulation models to study the physics of complex‐geometry nanostructures.

## SUMMARY Although the concentration index (CI) and the health achievement index (HAI) have been extensively used, previous studies have relied on bootstrapping to compute the variance of the HAI, whereas competing variance estimators exist for the CI.

## Abstract The bond fluctuation model on a square lattice with a bond‐length dependent potential exhibits in simulations of slow cooling a kinetic glass transition where the system falls out of equilibrium. Extending previous work, the relaxation functions of gyration radius and end‐to‐end distanc
