摘要
A two-dimensional (2-D) capacitance simulator using an improved boundary element method (BEM) is described. The capacitance simulator was linked with a topography/process simulator to estimate the distributed capacitances of complex structures based on actual processes. The utilization of a linear discontinuous element as the shape function is proposed in order to deal with multiregional problems by BEM. Other new techniques employed in the simulation program are also described, which enable precise calculation within practical CPU time. The calculated capacitances show good agreement with the experimental results. © 1990 IEEE
