Abstract: Catalog Description: This course covers the principles of semiconductor devices. Energy bands, transport properties and generation recombination phenomena in bulk semiconductors are covered first. Junctions between semiconductors and metalsemiconductor will then be studied. Equipped with an understanding of the character of physical phenomena in semiconductors, students learn the principles of operation of diodes, transistors, light detectors and light emitting devices. This course will provide general background for subsequent courses in electronics. Course Objectives: To teach properties, models, and concepts associated with semiconductor devices. Provides detailed insight into the internal workings of basic semiconductor devices such as the pn-junction diode, Bipolar Junction Transistor, and MOSFET. Systematically develops the analytical tools needed to solve practical device problems.
