Abstract
No semiconductor device consists solely of a single material. Important functions are taken over by layers of metal, insulator, or other semiconductors. Successfull device simulation has to account properly for these materials and their mutual interfaces. Besides of the transport equations which the simulator solves in the bulk of the device, physical processes at the interfaces have to be accounted for by corresponding conditions of different materials.
