PH 360 - Physics of Electronics 3

Institution:

Milwaukee School of Engineering

Subject:

Description:

This subject provides students with the fundamentals of semiconductor physics. The electron energy band theory is developed and applied to the p-n junction to explain its behavior. Fundamental aspects of the operation of the p-n junction are used to explain the operation of several semiconductor devices including rectifier diodes, zener diodes, solar cells, light-emitting diodes, bipolar junction transistors, unijunction transistors, and field-effect transistors. Laboratory experiments illustrate fundamental properties of semiconductormaterials and with the characteristics and properties of a variety of semiconductor devices. This course cannot be taken for credit by students who have credit for PH-361. (prereq: PH-250)
