EEO 331 - Semiconductor Devices
The course covers physical principles of operation of semiconductor devices. Energy bands and energy band diagram, carrier densities, transport properties, generation recombination phenomena in bulk semiconductors, and the continuity equation are covered first. Equipped with an understanding of the character of physical phenomena in semiconductors, students learn the principles of operation, current-voltage characteristics, and nonidealities of p-n junction diodes, metal-semiconductor contacts, bipolar junction transistors, and field effect transistors. Not for credit in addition to ESE 331 .
3 credits
Prerequisite(s): AMS 361 or MAT 303 ; PHY 127 /PHY 134 or PHY 132 /PHY 134 or PHY 142
