ENG PHYS 740 / ECE 740

Semiconductor Device Theory and Modelling

Undergraduate (Cross-listed as ECE 740) Prerequisite(s): Enrollment in graduate program in Engineering Physics This course provides a fundamental in-depth knowledge of the theory of operation, modeling, parameter extraction, scaling issues, and higher order effects of active and passive semiconductor devices that are used in mainstream semiconductor technology. There will be a comprehensive review of the latest models for the devices that are valid out to very high frequencies and the use of physical device modeling/CAD tools. A review of the latest device technologies will be presented. The course will be a prerequisite to the other applied courses in microelectronics.

ECE 747

Polymer and Organic Semi-Conductors

Undergraduate 3 unit(s) Y. Haddara The course will explore electronic properties of polymer and organic semiconducting materials. In particular, we will study material structure, charge carriers, electronic transport, the effect of doping, device behavior, and fabrication issues.
