Finite and infinite elements for a simple problem in quantum mechanics (2002)
Journal Article
Bettess, P., & Abram, R. (2002). Finite and infinite elements for a simple problem in quantum mechanics. Communications in numerical methods in engineering, 18(5), 325-334. https://doi.org/10.1002/cnm.488

Finite element and infinite element models are used to predict the behaviour of a simple example problem in quantum mechanics, that of a linear harmonic oscillator. It is shown that good agreement with the analytical solution is obtained and that the... Read More about Finite and infinite elements for a simple problem in quantum mechanics.

Monte Carlo simulations of AlGaN/GaN heterojunction field-effect transistors (HFETs) (2002)
Journal Article
Herbert, D., Uren, M., Hughes, B., Hayes, D., Birbeck, J., Balmer, R., …Jones, S. (2002). Monte Carlo simulations of AlGaN/GaN heterojunction field-effect transistors (HFETs). Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 14(13), 3479-3497. https://doi.org/10.1088/0953-8984/14/13/307

Self-consistent Monte Carlo simulations are reported for AlGaN/GaN HFETs. Hot-carrier scattering rates are determined by fitting experimental ionization coefficients and the doping character of the GaN is obtained from substrate bias measurements. Pr...

Excitability of excitons and biexcitons in a ring cavity (2002)
Journal Article
Tronciu, V., & Abram, R. (2002). Excitability of excitons and biexcitons in a ring cavity. Physical review E: Statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics, 65(2), https://doi.org/10.1103/physreve.65.026616

We discuss the excitable behavior of excitons and biexcitons in a nonlinear optical ring cavity. The nonlinearity is due to the process of the creation of biexcitons by photon-assisted conversion of excitons. In the bifurcation analysis a region wher...
