Soldering
Soldering is one of the key processes in the manufacture of electronic equipment. Soldering allows electronic components to be electrically joined and also held in…
Semiconductor
Semiconductor, any of a class of crystalline solids intermediate in electrical conductivity between a conductor and an insulator. Semiconductors are employed in the manufacture of…
Scanning Probe Microscope
One reason is that a to-be-investigated sample in a transmission electron microscope must be sliced thinly and hence could be damaged. The SPM method involves…
Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)
The scanning electron microscope (SEM) uses a focused beam of high-energy electrons to generate a variety of signals at the surface of solid specimens. The…
Reverse Biase
The process by which, a p-n junction diode blocks the electric current in the presence of applied voltage is called reverse biased p-n junction diode….
Rectifying Junction
The rectifying metal semiconductor junction is also known as a Schottky Diode. When a metal is in close contact with a semiconductor, the semiconductor becomes…
p-Type Semiconductor
The extrinsic p-Type Semiconductor is formed when a trivalent impurity is added to a pure semiconductor in a small amount, and as a result, a…
n-Type Semiconductor
When a small amount of Pentavalent impurity is added to a pure semiconductor providing a large number of free electrons in it, the extrinsic semiconductor…
MOSFET
The MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor) transistor is a semiconductor device which is widely used for switching and amplifying electronic signals in the…
Micro Electromechanical System
A MEMS (microelectromechanical system) is a miniature machine that has both mechanical and electronic components. The physical dimension of a MEMS can range from several…
