TCAD and Mesh_converter

Dear developers,
I am a newbie in here and am asking for some help.
I met a problem when converting ElectricField from TDR files.
The command line I used is:
…/bin/mesh_converter -c converter.conf -f dfise_output_file -o converter_output_file

then, this is my .grd and .dat file

and this is I got the problem:

I thought it was a mistype or something, but everything is fine. Or is there any problem from my TCAD converter?
I used this command
tdx −−tdr2dfise ’tdr_input_file’ ’dfise_output_file’

Am I doing something wrong? Or do you have any advice based on your experience?
Thank you for your kind support

Best,
Abdul

Dear @alfarasyi ,

Welcome!
I think it might be that some of your regions don’t have an electric field defined. From the output it looks like only epi, nwellcat, pwelllft, pwellrgt, and substrate have it.
I would try running for just those regions, or maybe even just epi to start with, and see if it works then

Kind regards,
Håkan

Dear @hwennlof

Thank you. I got it. I didn’t realize only those regions have an electric field. Since it’s a single pixel, the electric field will be distributed to the whole region.

As your suggestion, I tried with only those regions, and it worked.
In your experience, how long will the converter take? My pixel size in xyz is 20um 20um 30um (substrate 15um and Epi 15um) and now it’s still running for almost 8hrs.
Do you have any suggestions about this?

Best regards,
Abdul

Dear @alfarasyi

if your config really contains interpolate = false as in your screenshot above, I would expect this to take a few seconds at max. Long running hours can happen when interpolating, and when many co-planar points (or co-linear for 2D fields) are found and the search radius has to be increased significantly.

Cheers,
Simon
