Semiconductor

The synthesis of semiconductor devices in microelectronics and photonics applications has always fascinated me, and the field of developing electronic and photonic solid-state devices is a field that I find continuously interesting and rewarding. The physics behind these devices and their manufacturing are consistently setting new limits or allowing for new methods that produce useful applications. By embracing and driving research, industries which rely on evolving electronic devices and methods

The Semiconductor Manufacturing Industry The specific industry that will be referred to will be the semiconductor manufacturing industry. This industry emerged after World War II, first in the Boston area and then moved westwards into California during the 1950s. Reasons for locating in such areas include flat land, temperature, stable economy, steady government scene, accessible to markets, available raw materials and high skilled labour. Because the industry is high

Semiconductors: The Silicon Chip Silicon is the raw material most often used in integrated circuit (IC) fabrication. It is the second most abundant substance on the earth. It is extracted from rocks and common beach sand and put through an exhaustive purification process. In this form, silicon is the purist industrial substance that man produces, with impurities comprising less than one part in a billion. That is the equivalent of one tennis ball in a string of golf balls stretching from the earth

Organic semiconductors Abstract: This paper covers advantages of organic semiconductors over the conventional one’s and also the use of organic semiconductors and polymers to make OLED’s and PLED’s. Introduction: An organic semiconductor is an organic material with semiconductor properties. They can be divided into single molecules, oligomers or polymers. Many organic materials are very colorful and these materials interact very strongly with light. Due to this reason they are used

The Physics of Semiconductor Devices The purpose of this paper is to give a greater understanding of the semiconductor world, for Physics 100 students who have a little knowledge of electronics. I will cover conductors, insulators, semiconductors, and the operation of a diode and a transistor. The reason that it is important to understand these devices is the vast effect that they have had on our modern world. Our lives are filled by electronics, especially in this computerized age that

Tin Oxide Semiconductors Nanowires(NW) for Gas Detection. In the recent years nanoscale sensors have become more and more popular. When making a nanostructure-based sensor the most important aspects that have to be taken into account are: sensitivity, selectivity and stability. The way gas sensors function is determined by the convection of electrical conductivity due to surface reactions such as oxidation or reduction caused by the exposure to different types of gases. Recently a great quantity

In this work, we consider two kinds of a spherically symmetric semiconductor quantum dots: (a) type I single quantum dot (SQD) with radius r_1, in which electrons and holes are confined in the same region of space, and (b) type II core/shell quantum dot (CCQD) with the same core radius, r_1, coated with shell thickness t=r_2-r_1, in which the spatial confinement of electrons and holes depends strongly on the geometrical parameters (core radius and shell thickness) and strain effects. Due to the potential

electric current or don't succeed to perform electric current. However, there is a third kind of content that is not a really excellent electric conductor, and simultaneously, is not really an excellent insulator either. These components are known as semiconductors, such as rubber and germanium (Trefil, p. 243). The fairly neutral components have the same quantity of protons and electrons, which generally terminate each other out making them fairly neutral. The substance factor offers with mixing more than
