Abstract<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Radiation detectors have a wide range of applications, such as in medical technology, materials analysis, and security screening. Gallium nitride (GaN) shows great potential as a material for sensitive and fast radiation detectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this thesis (Bachelor\u2019s\/Master\u2019s), various GaN detector structures\u2014ranging from 1D to 2D\u2014are to be simulated using TCAD Sentaurus, their electrical and detector-physical properties investigated, and\u2014where available\u2014compared with and calibrated against experimental measurement data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This thesis is intended for students of electrical engineering, physics, materials science, mechatronics, or related fields with a basic understanding of semiconductor physics and an interest in numerical simulation. Prior experience with TCAD and CAD is very helpful but not required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
