5CH - P-n junctions



By putting some n-type and p-type materials together you can make all sorts of wonderful devices. Diodes, LED's, solar cells and LDR's all rely upon the technology of semiconductors. We explained how each of these devices work in terms of electrons and holes. You need to be able to distinguish between reverse bias and forward bias as well as photovoltaic mode and photoconductive mode.
