the differences between UJT and FET are :-
1. structural :- a. there is only one p-channel in the UJT where as two in JFET
b. the p-channel of UJT is more highly doped when compared to p-channel in JFET
2. functional :- UJT always works in forward biased condition (gate is forward biased) where as JFET always work in rverse bias condition (gate is reverse biased)
The family tree of FET devices may be divided
into two main branches, Junction FETs (JFETs) and Insulated
Gate FETs (or MOSFETs, metal-oxide- semiconductor
field-effect transistors). Junction FETs are inherently
depletion-mode devices, and are available in
both n- and p-channel configurations.
The bulk resistance between the two bases, which will be different for different types of UJT. Consult the datasheet for the value.
voltageCurrent between the two bases of the UJT sets up a voltage gradient in the semiconductor. When the voltage on the emitter of the UJT rises high enough to forward bias the emitter-base junction at the voltage of the interbase gradient where the emitter is located, the UJT "turns on".

UJT (UniJunction Transistor): It is a transistor with only one junction and three terminals: an emitter (E) and two bases (B1 and B2). BJT (Bipolar Junction Transistor): This type of transistor consists of two junctions and three terminals, namely Emitter "E", Base "B" and Collector"C". There are two types of BJT, i) PNP and ii) NPN.
FET is a field effect transistor, abbreviated to FET. There are two basic types of FET: a junction FET abbreviated to JFET and an insulated gate FET , abbreviated to IGFET. The most common type of IGFET is a metal-oxide silicon FET, Known as a MOSFET. Modern microprocessors may contain tens of millions of MOSFETs.
The structure of a UJT is quite similar to that of an N-channel JFET. The main difference is that P-type (gate) material surrounds the N-type (channel) material in case of JFET and the gate surface of the JFET is much larger than emitter junction of UJT.

UJT is the voltage controlled device.in which only one mejority carriers are responsible for current flowing. UJT is one junction transistor and it is three terminal emitter and two base. BJT is the current controlled device. in which both mejority and minority carrier are responsiblefor current flowing. this type of transistor consists of two junction and three terminal these are : emitter , base , collector.
why ujt used as amplifier
Explaine operation of UJT .
UJT is known as Uni Junction Transistor
by connecting the ujt with proper biasing resistors
For many people the letters UJT stand for Unitary Junction Transistor.
