In this chapter, a brief description of the basic concepts governing the flow of [size=9.96001pt]current in a pn junction are discussed. Both intrinsic and extrinsic semicon

surround the nucleus in specific orbits. The electrons are negatively charged[size=9.96001pt]and the nucleus is positively charged. If an electron absorbs energy (in the
