What is a P-N Junction? A p-n junction is a fundamental building block of modern electronics, formed by joining together two types of semiconductor materials: p-type (positive) and n-type (negative).

For the standard junction diode, there are two operating regions and three possible biasing conditions. There is no external potential energy applied to the P-N junction when a diode is connected in a ...

Abstract: P/N diodes are used in a wide range of applications and are a common device of a technology. In the field of smart discrete technologies, polysilicon diodes are used for thermal protection ...

Abstract: This article details a comparison between all-inorganic thin-film piezotronic p-n/n-p heterojunction diodes as wearable pressure sensors, with a comprehensive exploration of how the p-n ...

Formed at the boundary between an N-type and P-type semiconductor is a P-N Junction which is created by doping a single crystal of semiconductor. The nature of the P-N junction is one of the crucial ...

This course presents in-depth discussion and analysis of pn junction and metal-semiconductor contacts including equilibrium behavior, current and capacitance responses under bias, breakdown, ...
