Question

2.5 Performing a literature search for the required constants, draw the room-temperature thermal-equilibrium band diagrams for the following heterojunctions and calculate the values of the built-in potential and the width of the depletion region. Indicate the sources used in extracting the required constants: a. Si-doped $Al_{0.3}Ga_{0.7}As$/undoped GaAs, while the dopant distribution is uniform with a concentration equal to $10^{16} cm^{-3}$. b. Si-doped GaAs/undoped $In_{0.2}Ga_{0.8}As$, while the dopant distribution is uniform with a concentration equal to $10^{16} cm^{-3}$. c. B-doped $Si_{0.8}Ge_{0.2}$/P-doped Ge, while both dopant distributions are uniform. Boron concentration is equal to $10^{17} cm^{-3}$, and the phosphorus concentration is $10^{15} cm^{-3}$. Assume all dopants activated and the interface to be ideal with no strain. Use Vegard's law wherever needed.

Consider a Si sample under equilibrium conditions, doped with Arsenic to a concentration 10¹⁷ cm⁻³. At T = 300K, is this material n-type or p-type? What are the majority and minority carrier concentrations? As the temperature of this sample is increased, nᵢ will eventually increase to be higher than the dopant concentration. From the plot on the right, estimate the temperature at which nᵢ is 10 times higher than the dopant concentration. With the same doping concentration, what is the value of the temperature if the semiconductor is Germanium?

00:01 In this problem it is given that a part at t is equals to 300k is the material n type or b type, n type or p type.
00:17 And what are the majority and minority carrier concentrations here? so actually in n type, majority and minority carriers, they are elected.
00:44 Electrons, they are electrons while in p -type semiconductors, they are holes.
01:12 So the less abundant charge carriers are called minority carriers, okay? and majority carriers are those which are large in number and responsible for.
02:15 Conduction in a semiconductor conduction in a semi conductor okay that's our answer now we have b part so it is given that as the temperature of the sample is increased and will be eventually increased to be higher than the dopant concentration so from the plot on the right we have to estimate the temperature at which and is ten times higher than its dopamine concentration...
