The Professional Certificate Program covers the operating principles of semiconductor devices for integrated circuits including semiconductor materials, solid-state physics, PN junction, photodiodes, solar cells, Bipolar Junction Transistors, MOS Capacitor, Charge Coupled Devices, CMOS image sensors, MOSFETs, and Advanced Field Effect Transistors such as FinFET, Gate-All-Around FET, and 2D MOSFETs.
The program starts with the basic energy band diagrams and explains the operating principle of each device in detail. It also explains the approaches to adjust the devices’ performance and design a device with desirable specifications. Finally, the device equivalent circuit model will be introduced to connect the devices from applications.
In this program, we take a more intuitive approach to exploring the underlying concepts. Eschewing mathematics, we use engaging animations to help you visualize the working principles of many common semiconductor devices.
Whether you are completely new to the subject or an experienced engineer, this program will give you a different perspective and a new way to look at the behaviors of semiconductor devices.
Reducing the reliance on equations does not mean the depth of the material is sacrificed. In fact, the program provides even more in-depth explanations of key concepts. We shift the focus from quantitatively evaluating the behavior of semiconductor devices to intuitively visualizing the semiconductor device actions.
