Problem 1. Suppose the body electrode of a MOSFET with a p-Si body is at ground potential, and the gate voltage, VG, is set appropriately to create an inversion channel between the source and drain electrodes. Which electrode, the Source or the Drain, will need a more positive potential if we wanted to move channel carriers from the Drain towards the Source (as opposed to the normal flow direction of Source to Drain)? As always required on your work, explain your answer.
