About this ebook
Welcome to Semiconductor Basics! This is a nonfiction science book which contains various topics on fundamentals of semiconductor. Semiconductors are a vital component of electronic equipment, allowing for advancements in communications, computers, healthcare, military systems, transportation, clean energy, and a variety of other fields. Semiconductors, also known as integrated circuits (ICs) or microchips, are produced from pure components such as silicon or germanium, as well as compounds like gallium arsenide. Small amounts of impurities are added to these pure elements in a process called doping, causing dramatic variations in the conductivity of the material. Semiconductors play a significant function in developing electronic gadgets, therefore they're a big part of our life. Consider what life would be like if we didn't have access to technology devices like smartphones, radios, televisions, laptops, video games and advanced medical diagnostic equipment. This book covers various topics on Basics of Semiconductor, PN Junction Theory, PN Junction Diode, The Signal Diode, Power Diodes and Rectifiers, Full Wave Rectifier, The Zener Diode, The Light Emitting Diode, Bypass Diodes in Solar Panels, Diode Clipping Circuits and The Schottky Diode. Thanks for reading the book.
