iv curve

[SAKINA]

Hai Sir,
 
I have a question about the IV curve. This is IV curve was obtained from the analysis from the script generator in QW. What i would like to confirm is the Bias Voltage is either Drain Voltage or Gate Voltage? I attached the figure of the IV that was obtained and highlighted the bias.

Thank you

In ATK, "bias voltage" always means the voltage difference between the left and right electrodes. Manual I-V plotting is needed if you want the x-axis to be Gate-to-Drain voltage difference or similar.

Thank you Sir for the reply. However how to plot manually the iv curve that the x axis is gate voltage?

[Jess Wellendorff]

You need to read the current(s) from the NC file(s) containing the transmission spectra for each gate voltage, and then plot current vs. voltage. This tutorial shows several examples of doing manual plotting of IV curves: http://docs.quantumwise.com/tutorials/graphene_nanoribbon_device.html
