Q2.
Transistors are manufactured by doping semiconductors. The diffusion coefficient of phosphorus in Si is D = 6.5 x 10-11 mm2/s at a temperature of 950°C. Assume the source provides a surface concentration of
1020 atoms/cm3 and the diffusion time is one hour. Assume that the silicon wafer initially contains no phosphorus. Calculate the depth at which the concentration of phosphorus will be 1018 atoms/cm3.
A gas consists of three atoms with access to three different quantum states with the same energy. How many different microstates can be formed from these quantum levels for the case of the Fermi-Dirac gas, where the atoms are differentiated but only one atom is allowed in each state.

- Your roommate is having trouble understanding why solids form. He asks, "Why would atoms bond into solids rather than just floating freely with respect to each other?" To help him understand at least one type of bonding in solids, you decide to embark on an energy explanation. You show him a drawing of a primitive cell of a sodium chloride crystal, NaCl, or simple table salt. The drawing is shown in the figure below, where the orange spheres are Na+ ions and the blue spheres are Cl− ions. Each ion has a charge of magnitude equal to the elementary charge e. The ions lie on the corners of a cube of side d. You explain to your roommate that the electrical potential energy is defined as zero when all eight charges are infinitely far apart from each other.
