4 Chapter 1 1. Copper has 20 orbiting electrons with only one electron in the outermost shell. The fact that the outermost shell with its 29 th electron is incomplete (subshell can contain 2 electrons) an istant from the nucleus reveals that this electron is loosely boun to its parent atom. The application of an external electric fiel of the correct polarity can easily raw this loosely boun electron from its atomic structure for conuction. Both intrinsic silicon an germanium have complete outer shells ue to the sharing (covalent boning) of electrons between atoms. Electrons that are part of a complete shell structure require increase levels of applie attractive forces to be remove from their parent atom. 2. Intrinsic material: an intrinsic semiconuctor is one that has been refine to be as pure as physically possible. That is, one with the fewest possible number of impurities. 3. Negative temperature coefficient: materials with negative temperature coefficients have ecreasing resistance levels as the temperature increases. Covalent boning: covalent boning is the sharing of electrons between neighboring atoms to form complete outermost shells an a more stable lattice structure. 4. W Q (6 C)(3 ) 18 J e 48( J) J Q W J C C is the charge associate with 4 electrons. 6. GaP Gallium Phosphie E g 2.24 e ZnS Zinc Sulfie E g 3.67 e 7. An n-type semiconuctor material has an excess of electrons for conuction establishe by oping an intrinsic material with onor atoms having more valence electrons than neee to establish the covalent boning. The majority carrier is the electron while the minority carrier is the hole. A p-type semiconuctor material is forme by oping an intrinsic material with acceptor atoms having an insufficient number of electrons in the valence shell to complete the covalent boning thereby creating a hole in the covalent structure. The majority carrier is the hole while the minority carrier is the electron. 8. A onor atom has five electrons in its outermost valence shell while an acceptor atom has only 3 electrons in the valence shell. 9. Majority carriers are those carriers of a material that far excee the number of any other carriers in the material. Minority carriers are those carriers of a material that are less in number than any other carrier of the material. 1

Same basic appearance as Fig. 1.9 since boron also has 3 valence electrons (trivalent) For forwar bias, the positive potential is applie to the p-type material an the negative potential to the n-type material. 15.

For most applications the silicon ioe is the evice of choice ue to its higher temperature capability. Ge typically has a working limit of about 85 egrees centigrae while Si can be use at temperatures approaching 200 egrees centigrae. Silicon ioes also have a higher current hanling capability. Germanium ioes are the better evice for some RF small signal applications, where the smaller threshol voltage may prove avantageous. 21.

An ieal evice or system is one that has the characteristics we woul prefer to have when using a evice or system in a practical application. Usually, however, technology only permits a close replica of the esire characteristics. The ieal characteristics provie an excellent basis for comparison with the actual evice characteristics permitting an estimate of how well the evice or system will perform. On occasion, the ieal evice or system can be assume to obtain a goo estimate of the overall response of the esign. When assuming an ieal evice or system there is no regar for component or manufacturing tolerances or any variation from evice to evice of a particular lot. 23. In the forwar-bias region the 0 rop across the ioe at any level of current results in a resistance level of zero ohms the on state conuction is establishe. In the reverse-bias region the zero current level at any reverse-bias voltage assures a very high resistance level the open circuit or off state conuction is interrupte. 24. The most important ifference between the characteristics of a ioe an a simple switch is that the switch, being mechanical, is capable of conucting current in either irection while the ioe only allows charge to flow through the element in one irection (specifically the irection efine by the arrow of the symbol using conventional current flow). 25.

The transition capacitance is ue to the epletion region acting like a ielectric in the reversebias region, while the iffusion capacitance is etermine by the rate of charge injection into the region just outsie the epletion bounaries of a forwar-biase evice. Both capacitances are present in both the reverse- an forwar-bias irections, but the transition capacitance is the ominant effect for reverse-biase ioes an the iffusion capacitance is the ominant effect for forwar-biase conitions. 5
