FORWARD BIAS, REVERSE BIAS I. HARNESSING ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY IN SEMICONDUCTOR MATERIALS Let s take Silico as a yical examle of semicoductor material. A Silico atom has valece electros. Joied by covalet bods, Si atoms form a lattice structure costituted by two itereetratig eriodic fcc lattices, havig 5x10 22 Si-atoms/cm 3 (8 atoms i a cube of side 5.3 Agstros). At zero temerature Silico is a isulator because all its valece electros articiate i the bodig. It lacks electros that ca wader free aroud the crystal structure. At T=0, coductivity σ= 0. At T = 0 K Si: [Ne]3s Itrisic coductivity Here we cosider a Si material free of foreig atoms (just ure silico atoms). Thermal geeratio of coductio electros At room temerature (kt ~ ev), thermal agitatio of the crystallie host rovides eergy to electros ad there is a o-vaishig robability (~ e -Eg/2kT ) that some of them will be able to break away from the (E g =1.12 ev) bodig ad, At T = 300 K Hole Free electro
2 cosequetly, set almost free to wader aroud the crystal: they become coductio electros. These electros are able to articiate i the coductivity of silico uder the resece of a exteral electric field. A tyical value of the cocetratio of coductio electros geerated i this maer, at room temerature, is o ~1.x10 10 e - /cm 3. Geeratio of holes Notice that the creatio of a ew coductio electro leaves their Si atoms with oe bodig vacacy. This bodig vacacy is called a hole. Holes cotribute to the coductivity. Ideed, uder the resece of a exteral electric field, a boded electro from a Si atom earby will have a tedecy to filli this bodig vacacy (the fact that the Si atom hostig the hole is a ositive io hels the rocess) ad eeds very little eergy to do that. Whe that haes a ew hole (with its associated ositive io) is left behid, which triggers the creatio of aother hole, ad so o. The et result: a et ositive charge is trasorted alog the fillig of holes. Sice a hole is created simultaeously with a coductio electro, the cocetratio of holes o equals the cocetratio of electros: o = o. This situatio could be chaged if selected foreiger atoms are itroduced i the silico crystallie structure. Extrisic coductivity -tye: Si crystal doed with door atoms (5 e - i their valece shell). Four e - articiate i the bodig with Si atoms, while the fifth becomes almost free of ay bodig. With a little bit of eergy this fifth e- becomes free to wader aroud the etire silico material. Examle of doig level: arseic atoms/cm 3. -tye: Si doed with accetors 3 Hole Accetors Doors atoms (3 valece e - ). (Boro 5 Free electro atoms, for examle). The three e - articiate i the bodig with Si atoms, creatig a bod vacacy to be filled-i, that is, accetor atoms create holes, which articiate i the coductivity (as exlaied above). So, the resece of doors ad accetors icreases the electrical coductivity of the material.

CHEMICAL POTENTIAL (FERMI LEVEL) At temerature T, semicoductor materials are characterized by their Chemical Potetial, a eergy level located somewhere i the bad-ga; its exact locatio deedig o the doig (accetors ad doors) cocetratios.

While diffusio takes lace, a electric filed build-u that ooses the diffusio rocess. Whe equilibrium is reached a sigle Fermi level characterizes the whole system (the - juctio). ev o V o ε = 0 ε = 0

Similar situatio haes to the thermally geerated holes. The drift mechaism illustrated i the figure above costitute the origi of the uavoidable drift curret I 0. Notice, the electros ad hole will be swet by whatever electric field is reset across the juctio, regardless of the actual value of ε. That is, the rate of charges crossig the juctio is somehow ideedet of the forward or reverse bias voltages. Oce they are geerated earby the juctio, ay electric field will swee them across. Thus, I 0 deeds oly o how fast are the e-h airs geerated, which is iflueced by the badga E g ad temerature.
