Extended Gate FET Modeling woes

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Why is comsol so difficult? I'm new to comsol, and I've spent months failing at making this model. I'm quite frustrated, I hope someone can atleast point me in the right direction. I want to 2-D model an Extended Gate FET (kinda like this as a pH sensor. and I've been using Comsol ISFET for assistance with the documentation and with a starting point. I keep getting hit with numerous errors, and I felt like maybe if I got a fresh perspective on how to approach this, it could help. I am terrible at the concept of meshing, I don't quite understand.

Reference electrode is implied (as per ISFET documentation) How can I model a sensing electrode emersed in an electrolyte and attached by a connector to the gate of a FET?

Edit current error when I try a semiconductor study reads: - Feature: Stationary Solver 1 (sol3/s1) Failed to find a solution for the initial parameter. Maximum number of Newton iterations reached. Returned solution is not converged. Not all parameter steps returned.
