Abstract
A novel very efficient technique for charge current calculations in two-dimensional Monte Carlo particle simulation is proposed. The technique obtains accurate results by using a significantly smaller number of particles than the commonly accepted technique. The proposed technique permits the two-dimensional Monte Carlo particle simulation to run on personal computers instead of on supercomputers. The results of field-effect transistor simulation are presented.Keywords
