Course Overview

The baisc structure of semiconductor devices is a pn junction formed by impurity doping. This course provides the basics such as control of carrier type and carrier concentration by impurity doping into semiconductors. This course will be given by invited professors from abroad.

Learning Achievement

Students will learn to understand the physical properties of semiconductors from the physical fundamentals and how devices are realized by skillfully utilizing these properties.
