5
Use energy band diagram to find:
p-type Si Use energy band diagram to find: VM Ayres, ECE875, S14
6
Use energy band diagram to find: Electron concentration in channel
p-type Si Use energy band diagram to find: Electron concentration in channel V requirements: battery = $ E –field/Vi across the insulator: breakdown not good VM Ayres, ECE875, S14
7
Usual approach: Q(x) E (x) V y(x) Everything else
VM Ayres, ECE875, S14
8
Usual approach: = d E dx The total charge density is
The Electric field is a function of the charge density. The potential is proportional to the Electric field The surface charge is: = d E dx ∞ means deep in substrate VM Ayres, ECE875, S14

Example 01 (will be a continuing problem):
+ VM Ayres, ECE875, S14
10
Answer: = 2.32 x 104 cm-3 In forward bias: b = 38.6 V-1 @ r.t.
VM Ayres, ECE875, S14
11
Example: what is the electron concentration at x = 0?
= 2.32 x 104 cm-3 In forward bias: b = 38.6 r.t. VM Ayres, ECE875, S14
12
Answer: need yp = yp(x) = 2.32 x 104 cm-3 In forward bias:
b = 38.6 r.t. VM Ayres, ECE875, S14
13
Can find potential yp(at x=0) using strong inversion condition:
2 x yBp = VM Ayres, ECE875, S14 ys = yp(x=0)
14
Example: Evaluate ys in strong inversion condition for example problem 01 with NA = 4 x 1015 cm-3 VM Ayres, ECE875, S14
15
Answer: yp(x = 0) = VM Ayres, ECE875, S14
16
To find yp(x) (and therefore concentration) must use this approach:
Q(x) E (x) V y(x) Everything else Will get E -field first and also wanted to know that VM Ayres, ECE875, S14
17
Electric field and potentials: in inversion:
Breakdown info here concentration info here New: the potential drop across the (ideal) insulator Vi Metal = battery potential: V p-type Semiconductor potential: yp(x) Semiconductor surface potential: ys = yp(x=0) VM Ayres, ECE875, S14

22
Can easily find E (x=0) = E s:
Take the square root of E 2 in eq’n 10 and use yp(x=0) = ys to evaluate: VM Ayres, ECE875, S14
23
Can easily find Q(x=0) = Qs:
