Dive into the electrifying world of semiconductor physics with this MATLAB script that plots the breakdown voltage against impurity concentration for Germanium (Ge) and Silicon (Si).
- Logarithmic Scaling: Experience the power of
logspaceto handle wide-ranging values of impurity concentrations. - Customizable Plotting: Tailor your plot with MATLAB's powerful graphical functions.
- Educational Tool: Perfect for students and professionals looking to understand the relationship between impurity concentration and breakdown voltage in semiconductors.
- Ensure MATLAB is installed on your system.
- Download or clone this repository.
- Open the script in MATLAB.
- Run the script and observe the generated plot.
The script calculates the breakdown voltage for a range of impurity concentrations for Ge and Si. It uses the following equations:
- For Ge: $$ V_{br1} = k1 \times \left( \frac{nb}{1.0e16} \right)^{-0.75} $$
- For Si: $$ V_{br2} = k2 \times \left( \frac{nb}{1.0e16} \right)^{-0.75} $$
Where k1 and k2 are material constants, and nb is the impurity concentration.
Your contributions make the scientific community thrive. Suggestions, bug reports, and improvements are warmly welcomed.
