Insignificant distortion is observed over 90% of the bell-shaped R-DCIV curves centered at their peaks when impurity deionization is excluded in the theory. This is due to negligible impurity deionization because of the much lower electron and hole concentrations at the interface than the impurity concentration in the 90% range.展开更多

Fermi-Dirac distribution and impurity deionization are included in the DC-voltage scale. The low-frequency and high-frequency capacitances, and their differences and derivatives, are computed in the presence of an unlimited source of minority and maj ority carriers. The results show that their difference and their DC-voltage derivatives, are large and readily measurable, hence suitable as a method for characterizing the electronic trapping parameters at dopant impurity centers and for a number of lower power signal processing and device technology monitoring applications.展开更多
