    We have developed an efficient general-purpose two-dimensional device simulation system which consists of a solver, and pre- and post-processors. This system can easily handle any complicated device having a non-rectangular shape. It can also be applied to compound semiconductor devices with heterojunctions, including optical devices such as laser diodes. In order to handle any device, a new program for construction of device geometry is developed as a preprocessor. It has an efficient graphic interface to reduce the time required to input data for simulations, which is a very time consuming task for complicated devices. A new efficient data structure representing device geometry is introduced in the program. During postprocessing, any physical quantity can be displayed on the multi-window screen. In addition, a general-purpose solver for basic semiconductor equations is implemented in the system. Using this system, any device can be successfully analyzed in a unified manner and the turn-around time for the simulation is significantly reduced.
