What's new in tiberCAD 3.0

New Features

• upgraded to libmesh 1.0.0, PETSc 3.6.2, SLEPc 3.6.2

• implemented MPI parallelization: MPI communicators can be assigned to devices and modules

• k-integration can parallelize automatically

• implemented quaternaries alloys can now be used for atomistic simulations

• contacts can be now defined as a boundary region internal in a physical region (e.g. edge in 2D surface)

• kp based band parameters now explicitly use all available bands to calculate the carrier densities, instead of extracting effective parameters for a single parabolic band

• kp and etb optics modules can now use gaussian line shape, in addition to lorentzian shape




Bug Fixes

• fixed a bug in dssc_generation

• fixed a bug for strain corrected bulk band parameters




Distro Compatibility

This release has been tested on the following Linux distribution:
