Unbiased PN Junction: Depletion Region and Barrier Potential

A PN junction is one of the most important structures in semiconductor electronics. It forms the basic building block of many electronic devices such as diodes, transistors, LEDs, solar cells, rectifiers, and integrated circuits. When a P-type semiconductor and an N-type semiconductor are joined together without applying any external voltage, the junction is called an […]
