Mitiko Miura-Mattausch

Mitiko Miura-Mattausch is a engineering topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Mitiko Miura-Mattausch rather than just read about it. In short: Mitiko Miura-Mattausch (Japanese: 三浦道子, born 1949) is a Japanese electronics engineer specializing in the design, modeling, and simulation of electronic components based on semiconductors, including MOSFETs and new models for transistors in LDMOS. She is a professor at Hiroshima University.

Key takeaways

Mitiko Miura-Mattausch belongs to engineering; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Mitiko Miura-Mattausch to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Mitiko Miura-Mattausch from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Mitiko Miura-Mattausch (Japanese: 三浦道子, born 1949) is a Japanese electronics engineer specializing in the design, modeling, and simulation of electronic components based on semiconductors, including MOSFETs and new models for transistors in LDMOS. She is a professor at Hiroshima University.

Education and career Miura-Mattausch has a doctorate from Hiroshima University. She was a researcher in Germany at the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research from 1981 to 1984, and at Siemens from 1984 to 1996. In 1996 she returned to Japan as a professor in the Hiroshima University Faculty of Engineering, taking a special appointment in 2015 with the HiSIM (Hiroshima-University STARC IGFET Model) Research Center.

Recognition Miura-Mattausch was elected as an IEEE Fellow in 2007, "for contributions to nanoscale metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor compact modeling".

Books Miura-Mattausch is the author or editor of:

Ultra-Fast Silicon Bipolar Technology (edited with Ludwig Treitinger, Springer, 1988) The Physics and Modeling of MOSFETs: Surface-Potential Model HiSIM (with Hans Jürgen Mattausch and Tatsuya Ezaki, World Scientific, 2008)

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Mitiko Miura-Mattausch

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Mitiko Miura-Mattausch claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In engineering, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Mitiko Miura-Mattausch before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Mitiko Miura-Mattausch ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Mitiko Miura-Mattausch

In research: Mitiko Miura-Mattausch appears in engineering research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Mitiko Miura-Mattausch in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Mitiko Miura-Mattausch is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1949 births, Academic staff of Hiroshima University, Fellows of the IEEE, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Mitiko Miura-Mattausch outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
