Physics Of Semiconductor Devices

AY2023/2024 Semester 2

This course aims to provide comprehensive introduction to student on the physics of semiconductor and devices. It covers essential topics including principles and design, in order to provide foundation knowledge of the functionality and applications of the devices. You will be taught to design experiment that uses these devices, and linking theory and practice so that concept learned in the course can be implemented. Widely used semiconductor devices, be it logic, such as diode and transistor, or memory, such as, SRAM, DRAM, NAND Flash, will be explained in detail. It is also the aim of this course to familiarise student with the common semiconductor devices in advanced manufacturing industry so that the student can have relevant background before embarking their engineering career in semiconductor industry.
