Homework
Why and when does an NMOS-based consume more power
than a CMOS inverter?
If R is big, low→high output transition is slow.
If R is slow, constant power consumption whenever input is high.
Derive and explain.

What is the difference between a source and drain?
Source is the side the charge carriers for the MOSFET comefrom.
Drain is the side to which the charge carriers go.
Key question: Which terminal has a higher voltage and which
terminal has a lower voltage?

Why diodes?
In the process of building MOSFETs, we accidentally makediodes.
Must understand their properties.
What we learn about device physics here will help us understandMOSFETs in later lectures.

Step-by-step diode explanation
1 Dope regions with donors and acceptors.
2 N- and P-doped regions are in contact.
3 Diffusion according to diffusion equation.
4 Drift due to electrical field causes drift–diffusion effects to reachsteady-state.
5 Left with built-in potential, and depletion region (without mobilecharge carriers) near junction.
6 Reverse bias (making P voltage lower than N voltage) just makesdepletion region bigger.
7 Forward bias at first reduces depletion region width, then allowsmobile electrons and holes to combine at junction — suddenincrease in current!
8 At extreme reverse bias, the few mobile carriers that get into thedepletion region so fast that they collide with silicon atoms,generating electron-hole pairs, chain reaction fills depletion regionwith mobile carriers — sudden increase in current!

What are the electrons and holes we have been discussing?
We mean only electrons in the conduction band, not the valenceband.
We mean only holes in the valence band, not the conductionband.
The conduction band is mostly empty for a semiconductor.
The valence band is mostly full for a semiconductor.
