Learning Outcomes
Competences
Upon successful completion of the class, students are able to demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental principles and established concepts governing the performance of electronic and optoelectronic devices. In addition they are able to apply the basic principles and methods of Semiconductor Physics and Optics to particular devices.

This lecture is methodologically complemented by the exercise Devices for Electronics and Optoelectronics.

Skills Knowledge
By attending the lecture, the students become familiar with the following skills: They are able to

  • understand and discuss basic concepts and phenomena for electronic and optoelectronic devices (k1/k2),
  • understand the relation between the structure of devices and their working principle and performance (k1/k2),
  • apply principles of Semiconductor Physics and Optics to devices beyond the prototypical ones discussed in the lecture (k3).
During the lecture, the students acquire knowledge in the following areas of Semiconductor Physics and Optics that are basic for the description and understanding of devices for Electronics and Optoelectronics:

light(pulse) propagation in homogeneous, linear materials, Fresnel equations, multilayer interference, optical resonators, dielectric wave guides, band structure of semiconductors, doping of semiconductors, charge transport, p-n junction, bipolar transistor, MIS capacitor, field effect transistor, transistor scaling, light emitting diodes, basic laser theory, semiconductor laser, semiconductor detectors, solar cell

Criteria for evaluation oral exam
Methods Lecture based on view graphs shared with the students.
