As Rob mentioned, you will need a license for the simulation tools. Since you did not mention explicitly which software you want to use, here I give you brief introduction:
1: Lumerical photonics tools: Solving the first-principle equations such as
FDTD, DGTD, varFDTD, FDE, EME, and FEEM solve Maxwell Equations and their variant equations.
HEAR solves thermal transportation in solid.Â
CHARGE solves the drift-diffusion equations for electrons and holes (carriers) and Possion equations
MQW for multiple quantun wells
Solver physics introductions can be found from this link: https://optics.ansys.com/hc/en-us/sections/360005021794-Solver-physicsÂ
The system and quantum circuit solvers are here INTERCONNECT Solvers
