Hw 04: FRI: Pr. 2.07
Chp. 02: pn junction:
Experimental measurements for concentration:
Hall effect – Chp. 01: material:
measure VAB, and I, choose dimensions and Bext
C-V – Chp. 02: pn junction
Two realistic configurations beyond abrupt linear pn junction:
Linearly graded junction
Double layer junction: important, develops at interfaces

Q = charge density r x Vol
r = q with sign (ND+ or NA-)
Poisson equation relates charge to
electric field E :
dE /dx = r/ese0
(material is not polarized or magnetic)

Potential drop across depletion region WD=
Pot’l drop across p-side of WD + pot’l drop across nside of WD : ybi = yp + |yn|
Potential drop from 0 to x in WD: yi(x)
VM Ayres, ECE875, S14
Important questions are:
What is the magnitude and direction of the internal electric field?
What are the values of the various potential drops that matter?
Can I get an experimental measure of anything?

What is the magnitude and direction of the internal electric field?
Can I get an experimental measure of anything?
An antenna probe won’t work inside a solid
-no direct experimental measure of E (x)

About the directions:
E (x) direction = -x
dx from/to direction = +x
x is + from 0 to WDn
x is – from –WDp to 0

What are the values of the various potential drops that matter?
Can I get an experimental measure of anything?
Yes: can get an experimental measure of potential. The loop will
include the built-in potential ybi and Vext and any IR drops.
Total potential drop Vp-to-n is mainly across W

Potential energy barrier and built-in potential in terms of dopants:
But what if doping concentrations
are not what you think?

Go from electric field E (x) to potential yi(x). Why: you may be able to
measure a potential drop.
