- 5. Thevenin's Theorem states that we can replace entire network by an equivalent circuit that contains only an independent voltage source in series with an impedance (resistor) such that the current-voltage relationship at the load is unchanged. Norton's Theorem is identical to Thevenin's Theorem except that the equivalent circuit is an independent current source in parallel with an impedance (resistor). Therefore, the Norton equivalent circuit is a source transformation of the Thevenin equivalent circuit.

- 8. Concept of Electron Emission Electron emission is defined as the liberation of electrons from any surface of a substance. Types of Electron Emission Thermionic Emission Field emission Secondary emission Photo-electric emission Energy Band: The range of energies possessed by an electron in a solid is known as energy band. Valence Band: The range of energies (i.e. band) possessed by valence electrons is known as valence band. Conduction Band: The range of energies (i.e. band) possessed by conduction band electrons is known as conduction band. Forbidden energy gap: The separation between conduction band and valence band on the energy level diagram is known as forbidden energy gap.
- 9. Classification of material according to electrical conductivity (Conductor, Semiconductor & Insulator) Insulators. are those substances which do not allow the passage of electric current through them. In terms of energy band, the valence band is full while the conduction band is empty. Further, the energy gap between valence and conduction bands is very large (15 eV). Therefore, a very high electric field is required to push the valence electrons to the conduction band. However, when the temperature is raised, some of the valence electrons may acquire enough energy to cross over to the conduction band. Hence, the resistance of an insulator decreases with the increase in temperature i.e. an insulator has negative temperature coefficient of resistance. Conductors. are those substances which easily allow the passage of electric current through them. It is because there are a large number of free electrons available in a conductor. In terms of energy band, the valence and conduction bands overlap each other. Due to this overlapping, a slight potential difference across a conductor causes the free electrons to constitute electric current. Semiconductors. are those substances whose electrical conductivity lies in between conductors and insulators. In terms of energy band, the valence band is almost filled and conduction band is almost empty. Further, the energy gap between valence and conduction bands is very small. Therefore, comparatively smaller electric field(smaller than insulators but much greater than conductors) is required to push the electrons from the valence band to the conduction band. Forbidden energy gap 0.2-2.5eV

- 15. The doping process, which allows us to control the concentrations of free electrons and holes, determines the conductivity and currents in the material A fundamental relationship between the electron and hole concentrations in a semiconductor in thermal equilibrium is given by Carrier concentration If the donor concentration Nd is much larger than the intrinsic concentration Similarly, at room temperature, each acceptor atom accepts a valence electron, creating a hole. If the acceptor concentration Na is much larger than the intrinsic concentration

- 17. The two basic processes which cause electrons and holes to move in a semiconductor Drift and Diffusion Currents Drift: movement caused by electric fields Diffusion: caused by variations in the concentration Drift velocity of electron vdn (in cm/s) 亮n is a constant called the electron mobility low-doped silicon, the value of 亮n is typically 1350 cm2 /Vs The electron drift produces a drift current density Jn (A/cm2) given by The holes acquire a drift velocity vdp (in cm/s)

Total drift current density is the sum of the electron and hole components is the conductivity of the semiconductor = 1/ is the resistivity of the semiconductor conductivity can be changed from strongly n-type, n>>p, by donor impurity doping to strongly p-type, p >> n, by acceptor impurity doping.
