What is alternative of semiconductor?
as a material, nothingas a device to perform the function, vacuum tubes or magnetic amplifiers
Why resistor is an electronic device?
electronic circuits are those which deals with flow of electrons. in general electronic devices are categorized based on the flow of e as conductor, insulator and semiconductor. since resistor resists the flow of electrons (it deals or works with electrons), it is consider as an electronic device.
Which semiconductor power device is not a current triggered device?
Power FET
What is the process that creates a semiconductor device called?
fabrication, also called fab.
What is a bicrystal?
A bicrystal is a semiconductor or similar device incorporating a junction of two crystals.
How are N-type semiconductor used in semiconductor diode?
p-type semiconductor is obtained by carrying out a process of doping that is by adding a certain type of atoms to the semiconductor in order to increase the number of the free charge carriers.
What is the significance of the silicon effective mass in the context of semiconductor physics?
The silicon effective mass is important in semiconductor physics because it helps determine how electrons move through the material. It affects the mobility of electrons, which is crucial for the performance of semiconductor devices like transistors. A lower effective mass means electrons can move more easily, leading to better device performance.
What is a electronic device that is made of solid mateiral which electrons move through?
Any semiconductor device...eg: A transistor.
What is the difference between the minority charge carriers and majority charge carriers in diodes?
Majority charge carriers in the N-type side of a semiconductor material are electrons, because N-type semiconductor is doped with a material with 5 valence electrons. Semiconductor materials have 4 valence electrons and hold tightly to 8, so there is a "loose" electron for every atom of dopant. Therefore most of the charge carriers available are electrons. IE, electrons are the majority charge carriers. Minority charge carriers in N-type semiconductor are holes. Only a few holes (lack of an electron) are created by thermal effects, hence holes are the minority carriers in N-type material. The situation is reversed in P-type semiconductor. A material having only 3 valence electrons is doped into the semiconductor. The semiconductor atoms have 4 valence electrons try to hold tightly to 8, so there is a virtual hole created by a "missing" electron in the valence orbit. This acts as if it were a positive charge carrier. Most of the charge carriers are these holes, therefore in P-type semiconductor holes are the majority charge carrier. Again, reverse situation to minority charge carriers. Some electrons are loosened by thermal effects, they are the minority charge carriers in P-type semiconductor.

What is a semiconductor device that produce electric current through the photo-voltaic is an?
A semiconductor device that produces electric current through the photo-voltaic effect is a solar cell. When sunlight shines on the cell, it creates an electric current by releasing electrons from the material. This electric current can then be harnessed for various applications, such as generating electricity for homes or powering electronic devices.
What is the significance of wafer orientation in the manufacturing process of semiconductor devices?
The wafer orientation is important in semiconductor manufacturing because it determines the crystal structure of the material, which affects the performance and characteristics of the final semiconductor device. The orientation of the wafer can impact the electrical properties, efficiency, and reliability of the device.

What is the significance of the silicon work function in the field of semiconductor technology?
The silicon work function is important in semiconductor technology because it determines how easily electrons can move between different materials in a semiconductor device. It affects the efficiency of electronic devices and influences their performance and power consumption.
Why is a transistor called a pi-polar device?
a transistor is called a Bi-polar device because in this we use both p-type semiconductor and n-type semiconductor. In p-type semiconductor the current flows with the help of holes(deficiency of an electron or we can say it as a positive charge). while in n-type semiconductor the current flows with the help of electrons(negatively charged particles). so the total current is due to both kind of charge carriers. that's why it is known as a Bi-polar device.
What are materials which are suitable for electronic devices?
there are several type of electronics devices and several type of material used for these devices but material which is used for device should able to full fill the requirement of that device. for instance rectifier diode - Silicon Photo Diode - Germanium High Frequency devices - GaAs, InGaAs, GaP etc. Every material has it's own configuration so conclusion is that any one semiconductor material can not used as universal material for all semiconductor devices.
What is NMO?
N is the type of semiconductor, MOS refers to Metal Oxide Semiconductor device.
