The impact ionization model is selected on the impact statement. The parameter lrel.el sets the relaxation time for electrons in this model.
Although the hei model is directly responsible for the gate current, there is no 'special' model required to simulate substrate current.
Running this sweep of gate voltage with a high drain bias and including impact ionization and energy balance supplies all the necessary
physics. The substrate current can simply be plotted from the log file in a similar manner to the drain current. No special extraction of
substrate current is needed.
The extract statements used in this run extract the peak value and position of the substrate and gate currents. The value of the peak
current is measured first. This result is then used in a current search to find the gate voltage where this current is measured.
