What is signal?
… Function that provides information about the behavior or attributes of some phenomenon-audio, video, speech, image, medical, muscial etc.
Extrinsic semiconductors
n-type p-type
(adding impurities to intrinsic semiconductors)
Group V elementsP, As, Sb (donor)free electrons: majority
Group III elementsB, Al, (acceptor)holes: majority

Carrier Transport
• Drift– Movement caused by electric field
• Diffusion– Flow caused by concentration gradient (due
to non homogenous distribution)
Transport of free carriers in semiconductorsDrift
Random motion of carriers in semiconductors with and without field
o Thermal motion of an individual electron random scattering (lattice vibration, impurities, other electrons, and defects)
o no net motion of group of n electrons/cm3 over any period of time

Jn
Diffusion• Flow from region of high concentration to low concentration
- concentration gradient
• Charge carriers in absence of electric field move toward region of low concentration• More nonuniform the concentration, the larger the current
n : carrier concentration at given point along x
Concentration gradient
If each carrier has charge q, and the semiconductor has cross-section area A
Dn: diffusion constant (cm2/s)
Dn = 34 cm2/s (for electrons); Dp=12 cm2/s (for holes)
Current density (electrons)
Current density (holes)
• With both electron and hole gradients present, thetotal current density is
• Consider a situation as shown in figure below.Suppose the electron concentration is N at x=0 andfalls linearly to zero at x=L. Determine the diffusioncurrent.
Ld is constant
Make an analysis of both gradient profiles (linear and exponential)
At what value of x does the current density drops to 1% of its maximum value?Exercise
Now, we can FINALLY write down the TOTAL current in a semiconductor:
For electrons:
For holes:
And TOTAL current:
JN = JN,drift + JN,diff = qnµnε + dxdnqDN
JP = JP,drift + JP,diff = qpµpε –dxdpqDP
Under equilibrium, or open circuit conditions, total current must always be zero
Jdrift = -Jdiffusion
0=+=dxdnqDqnJ NnN µ ε
Leads to the Einstein Relationship:q
kTD=
µ
This is very, very important because it connects diffusivity with mobility, which we already know how to look up
pn junction
• Simplest semiconductor device• Flow of current freely when p region has external
positive voltage (forward bias)• No current in reverse bias mode• This asymmetry in current flows makes pn junction
diodes useful as rectifier.• Biased pn junction can be used
– Voltage variable capacitors– Photocells– Light emittters …
What are we going to study ..
No external connections Terminals are open

A pn junction employs followingdoping levels, Na=1016 cm-3,Nd=5×1015 cm-3. Calculate theelectron and hole concentrationson the two sides.

Peak Reverse Voltage (Peak Inverse Voltage): Voltage thatmay be applied to the junction without causing junctionbreakdown
Effect of temperature
• Is and VT are temperature dependent• Diode characteristics will change with
temperature• Greater be the temperature, lower be the
forward voltage required for the conduction of current.– For Si, 2mV/°C
Zener breakdown• Dominant for heavily doped (>1018 cm-3)
– Depletion region becomes narrower– Tunneling of carriers across the region
• Breakdown at a few volts (typically < 5 V)
Avalanche breakdown• More lightly doped junctions (< 1017 cm-3)• Wider depletion region, electrons accelerated across it
gain enough kinetic energy to create additional EHPs by breaking the covalent bonds
• Impact ionization and carrier multiplication• VR> 7V• Most common breakdown

Diode as Clamper
• A clamping circuit isused to place either thepositive or negativepeak of a signal at adesired level.
• The dc component issimply added orsubtracted to/from theinput signal. Theclamper is alsoreferred to as an ICrestorer and ac signallevel shifter.
