Monitors

Monitors record steady-state charge quantities over a region: the electrostatic potential, free-carrier concentrations, current density, electric field, and energy bands. A charge simulation requires at least one of SteadyPotentialMonitor, SteadyFreeCarrierMonitor, SteadyCapacitanceMonitor or SteadyCurrentDensityMonitor; SteadyElectricFieldMonitor and SteadyEnergyBandMonitor are additional outputs and do not satisfy this requirement on their own.

Note

SteadyCapacitanceMonitor reports capacitance from a DC voltage sweep, so it requires a voltage source that sweeps an array of voltages (len(voltage) > 1).

SteadyPotentialMonitor	Electric potential (\(\psi\)) monitor.
SteadyFreeCarrierMonitor	Free-carrier monitor for Charge simulations.
SteadyCapacitanceMonitor	Capacitance monitor associated with a charge simulation.
SteadyCurrentDensityMonitor	Current density monitor for Charge/Conduction simulations.
SteadyElectricFieldMonitor	Electric field monitor for Charge/Conduction simulations.
SteadyEnergyBandMonitor	Energy bands monitor for Charge simulations.
