Description:
|
Develops an understanding
of those semiconductor parameters that relate to the performance of semiconductor
devices. Hole and electron conduction and charge carrier distribution as a function of
energy are developed. Charge carrier generation and recombination and carrier dynamics
leading to drift and diffusion are used to study semiconductor transport phenomena.
The p-n junction, bipolar junction transistor and field-effect
transisitor are studied in detail. (3-0-3). Prereq: SP212 or SP222 or permission of chair. [Spring]
