During such a time interval, the MOS is said to be in deep depletion and the only charge present in the semiconductor is the depletion charge. Q1 (a) If we apply a positive (negative) voltage step to a p-type (n-type) MOS capacitor, which is sufficient to generate an inversion layer at equilibrium, there is a time interval, after the step, when
