How to model a new device?

[XPG]

Hi, I work for my thesis in a semicond Fab. We are developping a quit
new
opto device that need an electronic circuitry. If I want to use my
device in an electronic circuitry I have to extract the model for
Spice: don't know how to model this device and what kind of electrical
measurement I have to do. For this reason my question is: If I
measure the I-V characteristic for different temperature and different
frequency, is this enough to make a model?
Thank
Gian

I suggest you look over a copy of the 2nd Edition of
Semiconductor Device Modeling with SPICE by Giuseppe
Massobrio and Paolo Antognetti. Also, if possible,
take a look at how others have macro-modeled devices
similar to that which you wish to model.

2 eye-talians. how perfect for the OP!
