A recent study published in Light: Science & Applications introduced a new method for determining the PN junction depth in a silicon wafer. This technique works at nanometer-scale resolution and is ...

Si LSI manufacturing technology is essential as the foundation of modern society. However, there was no wafer-scale technology for rapid, non-destructive, and non-contact evaluation of the internal ...

Understanding the operating principles of a Gunn diode. Waveguide techniques for Gunn oscillator design. Key starting parameters for dual-tuned microwave Gunn oscillators. Despite being an older, ...

The feature size of silicon-based transistors is approaching the theoretical limit, which puts forward higher requirements for the “atomic level manufacturing” of semiconductors. The basic idea of ...

High voltage! The sight of this familiar warning jars the senses and triggers caution in even the most experienced engineer. High voltage is a relative term, however, warnings are similar whether ...

In this tutorial, we propose a virtual/computational experiment, relateated to a PN junction, in the Mathematica computing environment. Now we can reconstruct the voltage-current characteristic of the ...

In the previous tutorial, we discussed the physical mechanism that determines the increasing trend of the reverse saturation current of a pn junction, as a function of temperature. In this article, we ...

Similar to other junction diodes, the Schottky Barrier Diode is a type of semiconductor diode that is employed in many electronic applications requiring low voltage and high current operations. The ...

Abstract: We examined the formation of pn-junction didoes on Ge(100), Ge(110), and Ge(111) substrates by P-doping with immersion laser irradiation in phosphoric acid solution at RT. We achieved ...

Diodes are among the simplest but most useful semiconductor devices used in a broad range of applications today. They are basically two-terminal components that allow an electric current to flow in ...
