Abstract

A time dependent evaluation method is presented in order to visualize the changing behavior of several parameters such as temperature, electron concentration and electrical potential in semiconductor materials. If well-known experimental standard methods enable solid measurements and results, animated time-dependent simulations enable a good step-by-step follow-up of the mechanisms. An original combination of three complementary methods (analytical, numerical and experimental) is presented here as an exhaustive package to extract the Seebeck coefficient of Germanium using the Hot-Probe experiment.
