Earlier we have written on intrinsic and extrinsic semiconductors. There are two types of extrinsic semiconductors – n-type and p-type. We already have discussed n type semiconductor materials in another article. In this article, we are going to discuss p type semiconductor material, its formation, properties, examples and uses. One can differentiate n-type and p-type … Read more
Impurity mixed semiconductors are known as the extrinsic semiconductors. Now, there are two types of extrinsic semiconductors. These are n type and p type semiconductors. They have different properties and the ways of formation are also different. We already have discussed p type semiconductors in another article. In this article, we are going to discuss … Read more
Impedance is a frequently used term in electronics and physics. We already have discussed the resistance of a conductor in another article. Impedance is almost the same as resistance. But there are some differences in the presentation of impedance. In this article, we are going to discuss the definition, units and formula for impedance in … Read more
The components used in a computer are Input devices, Output devices, a CPU, and Memory units. We can provide electronic data to a computer by using input devices and the output data can be read by using output devices. Memory units store the data in the computer. In other articles, we have discussed Memory units … Read more
A switch or key is useful to activate or deactivate a device. For example, if we want to ON or OFF a fan or a TV or a Tube light we need to press on switches. Sometimes, in physics laboratory, we use tapping keys to connect the circuit to get a current flow. These all … Read more
In the architecture of a computer, one can see that a computer consists of Input devices, Output devices, Memory units and a CPU. Input devices help to input the data to a computer and output devices help us to read and receive the output data. Memory units store the data in the computer. We already … Read more
The term mobility in electronics refers to the ability to move. Electrical mobility of an electron in a semiconductor gives the idea of the movement of the electron when the material is placed in an electric field. The mobility of free electrons and holes is not the same. It depends on many factors like the … Read more
In modern technology, Semiconductor materials have a huge role. Almost all high-speed electronic devices are made of semiconductors. One cannot use a pure semiconductor material to construct those devices. Impure atoms are doped in semiconductors before using them. In this article, we’re going to discuss exactly why we need doping in a semiconductor. Contents in … Read more
A semiconductor has two types of charge carriers – free electrons and holes. The motion of electrons in a conductor is well-known to us. One can expect almost a similar motion of electrons in a semiconductor too. But, how do holes move in a semiconductor? In this article, we’re going to discuss what is a … Read more
The internal logic design of a Computer is known as the architecture of the Computer. It consists of a CPU or Microprocessor, Input devices, Output devices and Memory. Computers work according to commands. While working the computer stores the input data and mid-work output data in its memory. The storage of a Computer is not … Read more
