Built-in Potential Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Built-in Potential = Thermal Voltage*ln((Acceptor Concentration*Donor Concentration)/(Intrinsic Electron Concentration^2))
ψ_o = V_t*ln((N_a*N_d)/(n_i^2))
This formula uses 1 Functions, 5 Variables

Functions Used

ln - The natural logarithm, also known as the logarithm to the base e, is the inverse function of the natural exponential function., ln(Number)

Variables Used

Built-in Potential - (Measured in Volt) - Built-in Potential is potential inside the MOSFET.
Thermal Voltage - (Measured in Volt) - Thermal Voltage is the voltage produced within the p-n junction.
Acceptor Concentration - (Measured in 1 per Cubic Meter) - Acceptor Concentration is the concentration of holes in acceptor state.
Donor Concentration - (Measured in 1 per Cubic Meter) - Donor concentration is the concentration of electrons in the donor state.
Intrinsic Electron Concentration - Intrinsic Electron Concentration is defined as the number of electrons in the conduction band or the number of holes in the valence band in intrinsic material.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Thermal Voltage: 0.55 Volt --> 0.55 Volt No Conversion Required
Acceptor Concentration: 1100 1 per Cubic Meter --> 1100 1 per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

On what principle MOS diffusion capacitance model works?

A MOS transistor can be viewed as a four-terminal device with capacitances between each terminal pair. The gate capacitance includes an intrinsic component (to the body, source and drain, or source alone, depending on operating regime) and overlap terms with the source and drain. The source and drain have parasitic diffusion capacitance to the body.

How to Calculate Built-in Potential?

Built-in Potential calculator uses Built-in Potential = Thermal Voltage*ln((Acceptor Concentration*Donor Concentration)/(Intrinsic Electron Concentration^2)) to calculate the Built-in Potential, The Built-in potential formula is defined as the built-in potential in a semiconductor which equals the potential across the depletion region in thermal equilibrium. It also equals the sum of the bulk potentials of each region, since the bulk potential quantifies the distance between the fermi energy and the intrinsic energy. Built-in Potential is denoted by ψ_o symbol.
