Modern Physics for Engineers Lecture slides 21d – Biasing semiconductor devices

This lecture part shows what happens when we apply "bias" voltages to diodes. Then, using the statistical mechanics of electrons and holes in the Maxwell-Boltzmann approximation, we are able to derive the ideal diode current-voltage characteristic, giving a good example of putting together many different ideas.

Abstract

This lecture part shows what happens when we apply "bias" voltages to diodes. Then, using the statistical mechanics of electrons and holes in the Maxwell-Boltzmann approximation, we are able to derive the ideal diode current-voltage characteristic, giving a good example of putting together many different ideas.
