Syllabus
- ECE 132
*Introduction
and quick review of necessary physics
*Carriers in pure semiconductors
*Doping (Impurities) in semiconductors
*p-n junctions
*Applications of p-n junctions, (LEDs, Solar Cells, etc.)
*Bipolar Transistors
*Field Effect Transistors
Please attend discussions as the pace of the class is quick
and discussions serve as a good review.
To encourage attendance there will be a quiz each discussion
section.
