Extrinsic semiconductors (those that use dopant) ... Since it's a measure of energy, the band gap is expressed in electron ...

Duration: 3 hours. In this module, we will cover carrier statistics. Topics include Currents in semiconductors, Density of states, Fermi-Dirac probability function, Equilibrium carrier concentrations, ...

Schematic of a semiconductor’s energy band structure. Credit: Ilamaran Sivarajah . The lowest energy level on the conduction band will be quickly filled by electrons produced with higher energy than ...

In this conventional strategy, energy band gap becomes narrower by using heavier elements: consequently, this strategy has led to the development of direct transition semiconductors composed of ...

Duration: 4 hours. In this module on metal-semiconductor contacts, we will cover the following topics: Device structure, Equilibrium energy band diagram, Electrostatic analysis, Energy band diagram ...
