[ISE&SILVACO]This is the workstation equipping TCAD6.1 of ISE, the comprehensive device simulator which is available of process simulation to device simulation.Also, the workstation equips SmartSpice and Utmost3 of SILVACO. It can analize circuits and extract the parameter of a simulation model.
[MBE]MRE is possible to deposit pure thin films among a super-high vaccum(-10-10Torr).The device equips four E-guns, and can deposit two kinds of thin films simultaneously. Now, it is used in order to deposit an oxide.
[Measurement equipment]It is the measurement system which measure almost all electrical properties:the main equipments are PUROBA, 4156A, 4284A, etc). The nickname is "doghouse".
