Abstract

The paper presents an efficient technique for evaluating the DC sensitivity of GaAs monopolar or bipolar devices through a two-carrier drift-diffusion model. The sensi­tivity analysis is based on the Branin's method for the sensitivity analysis of electrical networks. Numerical re­sults are presented concerning two topics: the behaviour of the distributed sensitivity within MESFET devices and the sensitivity-based statistical MESFET analysis with respect to random variations of the technological parameters, which is the basis of yield-driven device op­timization.
