Max marks: 5 ] I II III U(x) = 0, 0 < x < L, U(x) = U, x < 0, x > L Particle energy = < U ; classically the particle is U permanently bound in the potential well. However, according to quantum mechanics, a finite probability exists that the particle can be found outside the well even if < U. That is, the wave function is generally 0 L nonzero in regions I and III. This is possible due to X the uncertainty principle. In regions II, where U = 0, the allowed wave functions are again sinusoidal. But the boundary conditions no longer require that the wave function must be zero at the ends of the well.

A pn-junction has three distinct regions: a p-region, an n-region, and a depletion region at the junction [Figure (a)].

7 MU - MIT I BT C H SCOND SMSTR- ND XAMINATION JULY 01 NGINRING PHYSICS A. Write a note on a semiconductor junction diode. [5] [ for each main point. Max marks: 5 ] pn-junction is formed when a p-type semiconductor is joined to an n-type semiconductor. A pn-junction has three distinct regions: a p-region, an n-region, and a depletion region at the junction [Figure (a)]. The depletion region has no movable charges (conduction electrons and holes) because the conduction electrons on the n-side have crossed the junction due to diffusion and neutralized the holes on the p-side. Because of the fixed ion cores in the depletion region, an electric field exists [Figure (b)], due to which there is a potential difference V o across the junction [Figure (c)]. In the forward bias, the p-side of the junction is made positive with respect to the n-side, by application of an external voltage ΔV. Then the internal potential difference ΔV o across the junction decreases. This gives rise to a current I which increases exponentially with the increase in forward bias ΔV. Δ In the reverse bias, the p-side of the junction is made negative with respect to the n-side, by application of a negative voltage ΔV. Then the internal potential difference ΔV o across the junction increases. This gives rise to a reverse current that quickly reaches a saturation value I o (reverse saturation current).

[] A metastable state is an excited energy state of an atomic system from which spontaneous transitions to lower states is forbidden (not allowed by quantum mechanical selection rules). The average life time of the atomic system in the metastable state is of the order of 10 s which is much longer than that in an ordinary excited state. Stimulated transitions from the metastable state are allowed. An excited atomic system goes to metastable state (usually a lower energy state) due to transfer of its extra energy by collision with another atomic system. 8 1
