Problem 2. In a typical MOSFET structure with a p-Si body, the Drain/Body and Source/Body regions are comprised of pn- junction diodes because the Drain and Source electrodes are attached to the p-Si body layer through a small island-like region of n-Si. If these n-Si regions were not present, describe what would happen if you tried to measure the channel current between the Source and Drain electrodes in this device (assuming the gate voltage has properly created an inversion channel)?

Problem 2. A MOSFET structure with an n-type substrate (also called 'body') has pn-junction diodes between 1) the source and the body, and 2) the drain and the body.
