This paper presents an adapted Gummel method (AGM) used in the two-dimensional device simulation of an amorphous-silicon (a-Si) thin-film transistor (TFT). Firstly, the AGM for amorphous silicon is developed by modifying the Gummel method (GM) for crystalline silicon. Secondly, the AGM is implemented into a two-dimensional device simulator for the simulation of a-Si TFTs. The simulation results show that the AGM converges well while the GM fails to converge for the simulation of a-Si TFTs. Hence, the AGM is a useful technique for the simulation and analysis of a-Si TFTs.
