Diode – pn Junction and Metal Semiconductor Contact (Coursera)

Diode – pn Junction and Metal Semiconductor Contact Coursera Online Course Overview

This course presents an in-depth discussion and analysis of pn junction and metal-semiconductor contacts including equilibrium behaviour, current and capacitance responses under bias, breakdown, non-rectifying behaviour, and surface effect. You’ll work through sophisticated analysis and application to electronic devices.

At the end of this course learners will be able to:

• Analyze pn junction at equilibrium and under bias, capacitance and current characteristics, and breakdown behaviour
• Analyze metal-semiconductor contact at equilibrium and under bias, capacitance and current characteristics, non-rectifying contact and surface effects.
