Course outline
Basics semiconductor microelectronics includes:band theory of semiconductor, electron
emission, properties of semiconductors, electron-hole junction, principles of creation of
microelectronic devices, digital and analog microelectronics, diodes, transistors, integrated
circuit, their structure and production of devices.
The students understand how to approach analysis and design of circuits with nonlinear
elements, including diodes, transistors. Understand the principles of operation for p-n junctions,
semiconductor diodes. After taking this course students will be study: how work the variouse
type of semiconductor devices (diodes, transistors, resistors, photodiods, light-emitting diods
and etc.), how production the integrated circuit and their application.
