v0.8.3

What's Changed

• Fix: Bundled lookup table now included in wheel: The ionImplantLookupTable.h5 file was missing from the 0.8.2 release due to a timing issue with the release process

v0.8.2

What's Changed

• Ion implantation lookup table now bundled: CantileverImplantation automatically loads the lookup table data - no more manual load_lookup_table() calls required
• Added h5py dependency: Lookup tables stored as compressed HDF5 for efficient bundling
• MATLAB lookup table renamed: lookupTable.mat → ionImplantLookupTable.mat for clarity

v0.8.1

Major modernization updates

Python

New Features

• Moved from python2 to python3
• Complete implementation of CantileverPiezoelectric class (AlN/PZT sensors, voltage/charge mode)
• Complete implementation of CantileverPoly class (polysilicon and metal thin-film piezoresistors)
• New examples: piezoelectric_cantilever.py, poly_cantilever.py, phosphorus_diffusion.py
• Added matplotlib style defaults

Testing

• Added test suites for CantileverPiezoelectric (649 lines)
• Added test suites for CantileverPoly (779 lines)
• 276 tests total, all passing

MATLAB

Testing

• Added unit test suite using matlab.unittest framework
• Test coverage for cantileverEpitaxy, cantileverDiffusion, cantileverImplantation
• Optimization tests included
• 47 tests total, all passing

Documentation

• Added matlab/README.md with usage and testing instructions

Repository

Documentation

• Modernized docs: removed jemdoc, converted to markdown
• Added docs/tutorial.md
• Updated root README.md with implementation table

Releases

• Migrated historical releases (v0.1.0 - v0.7.1) to GitHub Releases
• Removed Releases/ and Docs/ folders

CI/CD

• Configured CI
• Separated release and publish workflows
• Release auto-bumps version in pyproject.toml
• Setup PyPI publish

v0.7.1

• Added helper scripts for ion implantation table generation (accidentally omitted from v0.6.0)
• Fixed minor units bug in cantileverImplantation.m affecting dopant concentration profile plotting

v0.7.0

• Switched from interior point method to SQP for optimization. SQP works much better with ion implanted devices and has better warm start behavior.
• Fixed sheet resistance calculation for ion implantation (now uses tabulated values instead of recomputing from interpolated profile)
• Several small bug fixes and speed improvements

v0.6.0

• Added ion implanted cantilever class using lookup table from TSuprem simulations
• Covers boron, phosphorus and arsenic doping across wide range of conditions
• Reintegrated piezoelectric, polysilicon and metal strain gauge classes
• Code cleanup and refactoring

v0.5.0

• Temperature dependent modeling of piezoresistor self-heating
• Improved mechanics modeling for segmented cantilevers
• Rayleigh-Ritz method for resonant frequency
• Added Simulink model for time-domain response
• Code cleanup (stable release)

v0.4.2

• Added thermal and piezoelectric actuation modeling
• Added optional features: actuation, tip mass, number of piezoresistors in bridge
• Bug fixes from previous release

v0.4.0

• Added piezoelectric sensor class
• Added 1D temperature profile modeling using finite differences
• Changed fluid handling to use 'vacuum', 'air', 'water' variable
• Performance improvements

v0.3.1

• Added amplifier current noise (Johnson and 1/f)
• Added number_of_piezoresistors parameter
• Changed default gamma from 0.5 to 0.9
• Added resolution_tradeoff_plot()
• Added default L/W and W/T ratio constraints
