Abstract

This paper examines the numerical solution within a semiconducting medium, employing the Finite Difference method. The research focuses on solving the fundamental equations for a 2-D, semi-infinite semiconducting medium with thermally insulated, stress-free surfaces to determine wave solutions. The study formulates both explicit and implicit finite difference schemes to address this problem. Numerical methods based on finite difference principles are employed to obtain solutions for these schemes. Subsequently, a comparative analysis of these solutions reveals unexpected similarities as a noteworthy outcome.
