Semiconductor Devices

Catalog description

Teaches the underpinnings of modern technology: the transistor (circuits), the metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) capacitor (memory), and the solar cell (energy). Introduces the physics of their operation, their historical origins (including Nobel prize breakthroughs), and how they can be optimized for future applications. Covers physical principles of semiconductors, operating principles, and device equations. Emphasizes function and application of the devices.
