Aestimo Description

Aestimo is an open source and free one-dimensional (1D) self-consistent Schrödinger-Poisson solver that can be used for semiconductor heterostructures. The software was successfully used as a usable co-tool in a scientific and/or educational work environment. The following alloys and material are supported: GaAs, InAs, AlAs, InP, GaP, AlP, AlGaAs, InGaP, AlInP, and InGaAs. Among its features, we can mention band structure for gamma electrons, as well as for heavy, light and split-off holes; 3x3 k.p method for holes and effective-mass method for electrons; carrier concentrations for heavy, light and split-off holes, as well as for gamma electrons; electric field distribution; electron wavefunctions; non-parabolicity; external electric field; strain for valance band calculations.
