Physics: Semiconductor Physics

Education facts

Code: FYST78

<p>This course aims to extend the material covered in the basic courses in Solid State Physics, Electronic Materials and Device Physics and provide a broader and deeper understanding of the physics of today's semiconductor devices. This includes discussions on the materials properties and physical principles underlying fundamental devices such as diodes, bipolar transistors and metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors, so called MOSFETs.​</p> <p>The course is given by the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) and follows the LTH study period and examination schedule.</p>

Entry requirements

Admission to the course requires 75 credits in physics and 45 credits in mathematics, or a bachelor's degree in physics or corresponded to - in both cases including knowledge equivalent to FYSB22 Basic quantum mechanics, 7.5 credits and FYSC23 Solid State Physics, 7.5 credits, and English 6/B and general entry requirements.
