21 Workig temperature rage of semicoductor device At high temperatures, the electrical differece betwee the ad p regios disappears ad the p- juctio becomes ieffective i cotrollig carrier movemet. The basic upper temperature limit of semicoductor material is determied by its badgap eergy. A rule-of-thumb is that the maximum temperature (i K) is approximately 500 times the badgap eergy i ev. For Si this rule gives T max ~ 90. The lower temperature limit is determied by the thermal ioizatio eergy of the dopats. If the temperature is too low, the dopats are ot sufficietly ioized ad there are o isufficiet charge carriers. The result is a coditio called "freeze-out." For example, silico freezes out at about 40 K. ollege of State Islad / UY 1
