Institution:

Western New England University

Subject:

Description:

Prerequisite: EE 303, CHEM 105 or equivalent. This course is designed to give the student an introduction to the physical basis of semiconductor devices. The goals are to provide the student with (1) a working knowledge of the physics underlying all semiconductor devices; (2) an understanding of the physical principles behind the most common semiconductor devices: the p-n junction diode, field-effect transistor, and bipolar transistor; (3) an understanding of the relationship between the circuit behavior of the devices, which were encountered in earlier courses, and their physical embodiment; and (4) a perspective of the physical and technological limitations of electronic devices. 3 cr.
