Course Description This course is a prerequisite for all electronics area courses and reviews semiconductor device physics and technology. The students are expected to have some background in atomic physics and solid state physics for this course. The course is divided into four parts- semiconductor fundamentals, p-n junctions, bipolar junction transistors (BJT), and field effect transistors (FET).
Course Goals and Student Learning Objectives Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to: LO1 Describe fundamental concepts of solid-state physics applied to the semiconductor devices by silicon and compound semiconductor materials. LO2 Explain general electrical behavior of semiconductor Si and GaAs, construct appropriate physical models. LO3 Illustrate structural details and current-voltage characteristics of p-n junction diode, BJT, MOSFET, Metal/semiconductor diode, and MESFET. Semiconductor Devices I, EE 221, Spring 2014 Page 2 of 5 LO4 Apply the fundamental understanding of semiconductor devices with knowledge on the limitations of physical models.

University Policies Academic integrity Your commitment as a student to learning is evidenced by your enrollment at San Jose State University. The Universitys Academic Integrity policy, located at http://www.sjsu.edu/senate/S07-2.htm, requires you to be honest in all your academic course work. Faculty members are required to report all infractions to the office of Student Conduct and Ethical Development. The Student Conduct and Ethical Development website is available at http://www.sa.sjsu.edu/judicial_affairs/index.html. Instances of academic dishonesty will not be tolerated. Cheating on exams or plagiarism (presenting the work of another as your own, or the use of another persons ideas without giving proper credit) will result in a failing grade and sanctions by the University. For this class, all assignments are to be completed by the individual student unless otherwise specified. If you would like to include your assignment or any material you have submitted, or plan to submit for another class, please note that SJSUs Academic Policy S07-2 requires approval of instructors. Campus Policy in Compliance with the American Disabilities Act If you need course adaptations or accommodations because of a disability, or if you need to make special arrangements in case the building must be evacuated, please make an appointment with me as soon as possible, or see me during office hours. Presidential Directive 97-03 requires that students with disabilities requesting accommodations must register with the Disability Resource Center (DRC) at http://www.drc.sjsu.edu/ to establish a record of their disability.
