Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install archimedes on CentOS 7.
What is archimedes
Archimedes is a package for the design and simulation of submicron semiconductor devices. It is a 2D Fast Monte Carlo simulator which can take into account all the relevant quantum effects, thank to the implementation of the Bohm effective potential method. The physics and geometry of a general device is introduced by typing a simple script, which makes, in this sense, Archimedes a powerful tool for the simulation of quite general semiconductor devices.
