Silicon

Ø When temperature goes up, electrons in the covalent bondcan become free.

Electron-Hole Pair Interaction
Ø With free electrons breaking off covalent bonds, holes aregenerated.
Ø Holes can be filled by absorbing other free electrons, soeffectively there is a flow of charge carriers.

Example # 1
Ø What is the electron and hole concentration in intrinsicsemiconductor at room temp?
Answer : n = p = ni = 1.5 X 1010 carriers/cm3
This may seem like a lot of carrier. However the no of siliconatoms Nsi in a given volume of crystalline silicon is
Nsi = 50 X 1021 atms/cm3
So there is only one excited electron/hole pair for every 1012
silicon atoms

Example #2
Ø Suppose is silicon is doped with P having a density Nd of1018 atoms/cm3. Estimate the doped silicon’s holes andelectron concentration.
Ans : n = Nd = 1018 electrons/cm3
P = ni2 / Nd = (1.5 X 1010)2 / 1018
p = 210 holes / cm3
There is one dopant atom for every 50,000 silicon atoms

Reverse Biased Diode’s Application: Voltage-Dependent Capacitor
Ø The PN junction can be viewed as a capacitor. By varyingVR, the depletion width changes, changing its capacitancevalue; therefore, the PN junction is actually a voltage-dependent capacitor.

Effect of bias on diffusion current
Ø When the diode forward-bias-voltage is
increased, the barrier for electron and holediffusion current decreases linearly. See the banddiagram.
Ø Since the carrier concentration decreasesexponentially with energy in both bands,diffusion current increases exponentially as thebarrier is reduced.
Ø As the reverse-bias-voltage is increased, the
diffusion current decreases rapidly to zero, sincethe fall-off in current is exponential.

Effect of bias on drift current
Ø When the reverse-bias-voltage is increased, the netelectric field increases, but drift current does not
change. In this case, drift current is limited NOT byHOW FAST carriers are swept across the depletionlayer, but rather HOW OFTEN.
Ø The number of carriers drifting across the depletionlayer is small because the number of minority
carriers that diffuse towards the edge of thedepletion layer is small.
→ To a first approximation, the drift current does not
change with the applied voltage.

Majority and minority carrier concentration under bias
When an external voltage is applied, the minority carrier concentration
at the edge of the depletion layer will change. If a forward voltage(V A=positive) is applied, the barrier will be lower and carrier injection
(diffusion part) will increase. The minority carrier concentration at the
edge of the depletion layer will increase.
If a reverse voltage (V
A = negative) is applied, the barrier for carrierinjection (diffusion part) will increase, and the minority carrier
concentration at the edge of the depletion layer will decrease.
The drift of minority carriers across the junction does not change
much with applied voltage. Why?
At V A = 0, the carrier injection and the drift of minority carriers cancel
each other such that an equilibrium conc. is maintained.
If “low-level-injection” condition is assumed, then the majority carrier
concentration will not change under any of the above conditions.

Minority Charge Gradient
Ø
Minority charge profile should not be constant along the x-axis; otherwise, there is no concentration gradient and nodiffusion current.
Ø Recombination of the minority carriers with the majoritycarriers accounts for the dropping of minority carriers asthey go deep into the P or N region.
