Abstract: Abstract It has been shown in Chapters 4 and 5 how the Fermi integrals play an important role in the evaluation of electron number and energy densities. In particular, the associated Fermi integrals which were introduced in those chapters are used in the evaluation of these quantities in quantum wells. These integrals must be evaluated as rapidly and accurately as possible in any device simulation. It is shown how numerical approximations can be made to these integrals in order to achieve this goal.
