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).

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, ...

How does a varactor diode work? To form the PN junction that makes a diode, half the piece is doped with a trace amount of “donor atoms” that have one more electron than the intrinsic stuff to make ...
