Semiconductor Material Engineering Universiti Teknologi Malaysia
Course Overview
This course introduces the basic physics of the semiconductor materials in order to understand the characteristics, operation, and limitations of semiconductor devices. From this course, the students are expected to understand the basics of crystal structures, quantum mechanics, quantum theory for solids, carrier transport phenomena in equilibrium and non-equilibrium states, fundamental of pn structure and pn diode. All of these basic components are vital for students to understand the operation of the present day and future electronic devices.
