Can someone tell me how can i simulate the quantum tunneling effect in metal oxide metal (MOM or MIM) diodes?

I am thinking about using a microwave based software like CST microwave or ADS to get the electrical fields and subsequently importing them into Matlab to calculate the current density and plot the IV- curve. Don't know if it will work.

Or is there a direct way that how can i simulate MOM or a tunnel diode which also have similar behaviour. which models should i use to simultae these diodes.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
 

Falstad's animated simulator supports a tunnel diode, with these circuits in the menu:

* I/V curve
* LC oscillator
* Relaxation oscillator

www.falstad.com/circuit

Free to download and use. Or, run it online and choose from the listed circuits.

Look in the menu for Misc. Devices > tunnel diode.

You need to have Java installed on your computer.
