diffusion of PTS doping. Our work investigated the leakage issue associated with the bulk substrate and assess the
leakage suppression technique via the 3-D TCAD simulation
with FermiDirac statistics, drift-diffusion transport using the
Philips unified mobility model, and the density-gradient quantization model [9].
