Quantum ATK Software Learning: From Atom to Device

In this course, the Quantum ATK software is  taught. Simulation of quantum devices is necessary for the design and analysis of nano-electronic devices. Quantum ATK can do this task well. This software provides you with a set of unique tools to create and simulate atomic structures. This software has a very strong and comprehensive tools, plugins and database that has many molecules and crystals in it.  In this course,  we will train how to use these tools.

The quantum ATK software calculations are divided into two main parts. Bulk calculation and another device calculation. First, we describe the bulk calculations  and then we explain device calculation.

We do calculations such as bandstructure analysis, optimization, current-voltage characteristics, relaxation analysis, density of states, and transmission spectrum calculation. We use and explain different examples to learn about different tools and different calculations. Examples such as p-n junction diode, Silicon nanowire FET, tunneling transistor, and molecular device.

At the end of this course, you will have a complete understanding on quantum ATK calculations. Also, you can extract the electronic and physical properties of materials. This course is useful for quantum physics students, materials specialists, nano and micro electronic engineers, semiconductor companies, etc. You may use it for your studies, paper, thesis, and every day to day jobs.
