Electronic Materials
Session 2020-21

• The goal of electronic materials is to generate and control


the flow of an electrical current.
• Electronic materials include:

ion
1. Conductors: have low resistance which allows electrical current

rs
ve
flow

w
2. Insulators: have high resistance which suppresses electrical

ie
current flow

ev
Pr
3. Semiconductors: can allow or suppress electrical current flow

Conductors
Session 2020-21

• Good conductors have low resistance so electrons flow


through them with ease.
• Best element conductors include:

ion
rs
– Copper, silver, gold, aluminum, & nickel

ve
• Alloys are also good conductors:

w
– Brass & steel

ie
ev
• Good conductors can also be liquid: Pr
– Salt water

15
Insulators
Session 2020-21

• Insulators have a high resistance so current does not flow in


them.

ion
rs
• Good insulators include:

ve
– Glass, ceramic, plastics, & wood

w
ie
ev
• Most insulators are compounds of several elements.Pr
• The atoms are tightly bound to one another so electrons are
difficult to strip away for current flow.

Semiconductors
Session 2020-21

• Semiconductors are materials that essentially can be conditioned


to act as good conductors, or good insulators, or any thing in

ion
between.

rs
ve
• Common elements such as

w
ie
ev
carbon, silicon, and germanium are semiconductors.
Pr
• Silicon is the best and most widely used semiconductor.

17
Semiconductors can be Insulators
Session 2020-21

• If the material is pure semiconductor material like silicon, the crystal lattice
structure forms an excellent insulator since all the atoms are bound to one

on
another and are not free for current flow.

i
rs
ve
• Good insulating semiconductor material is referred to as intrinsic.

w
• Since the outer valence electrons of each atom are tightly bound together

ie
ev
with one another, the electrons are difficult to dislodge for current flow.
Pr
Silicon in this form is a great insulator.

• Semiconductor material is often used as an insulator.

Semiconductor Valence Orbit
Session 2020-21

• The main characteristic of a semiconductor element is that it has four electrons in its
outer or valence orbit.
Band Theory

on
A useful way to visualize the distinction between conductors (metal), insulators and semiconductors is to plot out their
energies for electrons within the material. Rather than having distinct energies, as within the case of free atoms, the energy

i
rs
states which are available form bands.

Crystal Lattice Structure
Session 2020-21

• The unique capability of


semiconductor atoms is their
ability to link together to form a

on
physical structure called a

i
crystal lattice.

rs
• The atoms link together with

ve
one another sharing their outer

w
electrons.

ie

• These links are called covalent
bonds. Pr

Intrinsic Silicon
Session 2020-21

• Silicon , a vital element semiconductor(group IV material) has four valence electrons which held by
covalent bonds with the valence electrons of four adjacent silicon atoms.
• These valence electrons are not available for electricity. So, at OoK intrinsic silicon behaves like an
insulator.

on
• When the temperature rises some valence electrons break out the covalent bonds due to thermal

i
rs
energy. This vacancy in the bond, caused by leaving a free electron is considered as a hole.

ve
• Band gap energy of silicon: Energy to jump to conduction band from valance band and leave behind a
hole in the valence band equal to 1.2 eV in room temperature (i.e. at 300oK) .

w
• In the intrinsic silicon crystal, the number of holes is equal to the number of free electrons.

ie
ev
• At certain temperature always new electrons-hole pairs are created by gaining thermal energy but at
Pr
the same time, the same number of electrons-hole pairs are lost due to recombination (Electron-hole
pairs remain same).
• This is an equilibrium condition. Hence, this is obvious that in the equilibrium condition, the free
electrons concentration n and the holes concentration p are equal to each other, and this is nothing but
intrinsic charge carrier concentration(ni). i.e,
Suresh S. Balpande | balpandes@rknec.edu | 08/09/20
n = p = n i.

Doping
Session 2020-21

• To make the semiconductor conduct electricity, other atoms called


impurities must be added. “Impurities” are different elements. This
process is called doping.

on
Intrinsic silicon can be turned in to extrinsic silicon when it is doped with controlled amount of dopants. It is

i
rs
doped with donor atom (group V elements) it becomes n-type semiconductor and when it is doped with

ve
acceptor atoms (group III elements) it becomes p-type semiconductor.

w
• The silicon doped with extra electrons is called an “N type”

ie
semiconductor.

ev
– “N” is for negative, which is the charge of an electron (arsenic,
has 5 valence electrons). Pr
• Silicon doped with material missing electrons that produce locations
called holes is called “P type” semiconductor (boron that has only 3
valence electrons).
– “P” is Suresh
for positive, which is the charge of a hole.

22
N type semiconductor
Session 2020-21

• An impurity, or element like


arsenic, has 5 valence electrons.

• Adding arsenic (doping) will allow

ion
rs
four of the arsenic valence

ve
electrons to bond with the

w
ie
neighboring silicon atoms.

ev
• The one electron left over for Pr
each arsenic atom becomes
available to conduct current flow.

Suresh Balpande | balpandes@rknec.edu | www.sbalpande.webs.com 23
P type semiconductor
Session 2020-21

• You can also dope a semiconductor material with an


atom such as boron that has only 3 valence electrons.

• The 3 electrons in the outer orbit do form covalent

ion
bonds with its neighboring semiconductor atoms as

rs
ve
before. But one electron is missing from the bond. It is
referred to as a hole.

w
ie
• The hole assumes a positive charge so it can attract

ev
electrons from some other source. Pr

Current Flow in Semiconductors
Session 2020-21

• The DC voltage source has a positive


terminal that attracts the free electrons in
the semiconductor and pulls them away

ion
from their atoms leaving the atoms

rs
ve
charged positively.

w
• Electrons from the negative terminal of

ie
ev
the supply enter the semiconductor
Pr
material and are attracted by the positive
charge of the atoms missing one of their
electrons. Suresh S. Balpande | balpandes@rknec.edu | 08/09/20 19:45:58

When to Use
Session 2020-21

• There are many situations where signals and data need to be transferred from one subsystem
to another within a piece of electronics equipment, or from one piece of equipment to

on
another, without making a direct electrical connection.

i
rs
• Often this is because the source and destination are at very different voltage levels, like a

ve
microprocessor /PLC which is operating from 5V DC but being used to control a triac which

w
ie
is switching 240V AC.

ev
• In such situations the link between the two must be an isolated one, to protect the
Pr
microprocessor from overvoltage damage.

Other Devices
Session 2020-21

• Mechanical Relays can also provide isolation, but even small relays tend to be
fairly bulky compared with ICs.

on
• Because relays are electro-mechanical, they are not as reliable and are only

i
rs
capable of relatively low speed operation.

ve
• Where small size, higher speed and greater reliability are important, a much better

w
ie
alternative is to use an opto-coupler.

ev
Pr
• These use a beam of light to transmit the signals or data across an electrical
barrier, and achieve excellent isolation.

Session 2020-21

• A simple circuit with an opto-isolator.

• When switch S1 is open, LED D1 is off, so Q1 is off

on
and no current flows through R2, so Vout = Vcc.

i
rs
ve
• When switch S1 is closed, LED D1 lights.

w
• Phototransistor Q1 is now triggered, so current

ie
ev
flows through R2. Vout is then pulled down to low
state.
Pr
• This circuit, thus, acts as a NOT gate.

Why MOSFET : Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor
Session 2020-21

• switching losses are less in MOSFETs: MOSFETs are majority carrier device, means flow
of current inside the device is carried out either flow of electrons(N-Channel MOSFET) or
flow of holes(P-Channel MOSFET).
• When the device turns off, reverse recombination process won’t happen. It leads to short

on
turn ON/OFF times. As switching time is less.

i
rs
• MOSFET is voltage controlled device whereas BJT is current controlled device. As we know

ve
that providing constant voltage is easier than providing constant current in electrical circuits.
• MOSFET has positive temperature coefficient for resistance. So parallel operation is easy.

w
ie
BJT has negative temperature coefficient

Transistor as a Switch Summary
Session 2020-21

• Transistor switches can be used to switch and control lamps, relays or even
motors.
• When using the bipolar transistor as a switch they must be either “fully-OFF” or

on
“fully-ON”.

i
• Transistors that are fully “ON” are said to be in their Saturation region.

rs
ve
• Transistors that are fully “OFF” are said to be in their Cut-off region.
• When using the transistor as a switch, a small Base current controls a much larger

w
ie
Collector load current.

ev
• When using transistors to switch inductive loads such as relays and solenoids, a
“Flywheel Diode” is used.
Pr
• When large currents or voltages need to be controlled, Darlington Transistors
can be used.
