2.
A silicon p-n abrupt junction with NA = 6 x1016 cm3 and
No =6 x 1015/cm has
3 x 1015/cm3 generation and recombination centers
located at 0.02 eV above the intrinsic Fermi level of
silicon with on = 0p = 00 =2x10-15 cm2. If vth = 107 cm/sec,
calculate generation current density at a reverse bias
voltage VR=-0.7V.
Assume T=30OK.
Hint: Use Eq.56, p. 104 of the text (3rd Ed.).
