Device and Micro System Simulation and Modeling

Micro Systems and devices are first created by utilizing state-of-the-art simulation and modeling tools which include IntelliSuite and ANSYS

IntelliSuite Modeling Software

IntelliSuite contains a wide range of closely integrated tools to seamlessly go from schematic capture and optimization to design verification and tape out. A flexible design flow allows you to start your design at schematic, layout or 3D level.

 

ANSYS Modeling Software

ANSYS is general-purpose finite element analysis, physics modeling and computational fluid dynamics software.

ANSYS FLUENT enables broad physical modeling capabilities needed to model flow, turbulence, heat transfer, and reactions.

Mask Layout

After simulation and modeling, the final designs of the devices are laid out using L-Edit to produce photo masks. L-Edit is VLSI design tool; it is also flexible enough to do micromachining design, printed circuit board layout, and other CAD work.

The photo masks will be used to process substrates in the CNSE 200 and 300 mm fabrication facilities where substrate sizes ranging from 100 mm to 300 mm can be accommodated.  

CNSE's professors and professional staff welcome the challenge of developing unique devices and processes with our partners.
