Dear All,
Although heterogeneous junction transitors (bi-junction|field effect) are steadily replacing traditional homogeneous junction transistors in high
power switching and RF|microwave circuits, there are no good reference
books on these devices. So, given that the operation|working of transistors
(hetero|homo geneous junction) can be explained almost entirely on how
the conduction and valence bands align at the junctions the question is:
If one were to write a set of notes on heterogeneous junction transistors, what shouls the main focus be on:
1. The core physics(quantum mechanical potential wells,Fermi statistics, conduction|valence bands, bandgap engineering rtc.,)
2. Engineering aspects(cascode connected NMOS FET and depletion
mode heterogeneous junction FET, p-type Schottky ohmic gate for
depletion mode heterogeneous junction FET etc.,)
3. Equal emphasis on both the physics and engineering.
All ideas|suggestions are welcome. I am just toying with some ideas for
a set of explanatory notes on this topic. Thanks in advance.
