Basic PrinciplesBasic Principles
When brought together to form a junct ion, the majority diffuse carriers across the junction. The migration leaves a region of net charge of opposite sign on each side, called the space-charge region or depletion region. The electric field set up in the region prevents fur ther migrat ion of carr iers.
Now for the magic part !
