We present methods to solve the coupled set of Boltzmann, Schrödinger and Poisson equations deterministically, self-consistently and simultaneously by a Newton approach for a MOSFET. We show how small signal and noise analyses can be implemented for a confined 2D electron gas with the full inclusion of the Schrödinger equation and the Pauli principle with very high working precision and stability. We show how the transformation from the kinetic energy to the total energy leads to an additional term in the time derivative of the Boltzmann equation while reciprocity of the device in equilibrium puts constraints onto the numerical implementation. The inclusion of the Schrödinger equation results in non-trivial modifications to conservation laws when deriving the terminal currents with the Ramo–Shockley theorem. Furthermore, we show the validity of our methods and demonstrate how non-self-consistent solutions strongly disagree with our self-consistent approach.
