This document contains my personal notes from self-study and class lectures when I was taking the Semiconductor Devices class taught by Dr. M. Ashraful Islam and Electronics Devices for Integrated Circuits class taught by Dr. Avra Kundu at the University of Central Florida. This document consists of manuscripts about the subject, it contains common and fundamental knowledge about the field. These notes represent a distilled version of what I deemed significant and readily available in literature. Please do not use this information for graded assignments of any kind. This document is solely for self-study and enjoyment.
The purpose of this document is to provide students with an additional resource for their learning, fostering curiosity and aiding in self-study. Certain images and definitions included in my notes are sourced from the books: “Device Electronics for Integrated Circuits by Richard S. Muller and Theodore I. Kamins with Mansun Chan” and “Physics of Semiconductor Devices 4th Edition by Simon M Sze, Yiming LI, Kwok K Ng”.
The University of Central Florida is one of the few educational institutions that have a Class 100 Clean Room and also a Class 1000 Clean Room, not only for research but also for education and student’s practice. We had the opportunity of not only study the tools, machinery and procedures used in the semiconductors industry, but also to see them in the Microelectronics Laboratory at University of Central Florida, Engineering Building 1, Room 163.
