v1.1.0

Fixed

  • fixed broken v1.0.0 release

v1.0.0

Added

  • Params can be constructed with numberOfRegions, numberOfBoundaryRegions and numberOfCarriers
  • Params can be constructed directly from problem specific parameter structs

Changed

  • parameter files are replaced by parameter structs with explicit parameter access: p = parameter_set(); p.foo to access parameter foo; you can specify in the examples which parameter_set is used.
  • all examples scripts are overhauled with the new parameter set usage
  • global unit factors are removed: we rely on local unit factors from LessUnitFul.jl, provided by @local_unitfactors and ufac""
  • new globally available dimensionless constants object, containing the default physical constants
  • new application specific teSCA_constants, pdelib_constants, unit_constants are also available
  • Data needs a constants object as a key word argument, defaults to standard constants
  • notebook folder name from pluto-examples to notebooks

Removed

  • Thermal voltage UT is no longer part of the Params, since this value may depend on different definitions of the elementary charge q
  • methods taking UT as an argument take the temperature now instead
  • exported global physical constants
  • enable_trap_carrier!() method as the underlying model and discretization were not correctly set up

v0.6.0 July 23, 2025

Fixed

  • documentation via Documenter.jl

v0.5.0 July 17, 2025

Added

  • functions for internal data handling: datadir, examplesdir, parametersdir
  • possibility to add a stimulated recombination term for laser applications
  • struct ParamsOptical to hold fields for laser applications

Fixed

  • correct inclusion of parameter files independent of folder, from which they are started
  • corrected definition of numberOfNodes in function ParamsNodal

Changed

  • adjusted argument inival for function equilibrium_solve! to be inserted if desired

v0.4.0 May 26, 2025

Changed

  • adjusted global (constants and units) are mutable globals now for compatibility with julia 1.2 (will change with a proper export in upcoming 1.0 release)

v0.3.0 April 29, 2025

Added

  • code quality checks
  • Runic code formatting
  • post-process methods
