Depletion Width W (p-type Si) • Depletion Approximation: The surface of the Si is depleted of mobile carriers to a depth W. • The charge density within the depletion region is • Poisson’s equation: • Integrate twice, to obtain f. S: To find fs for a given VG, we need to consider the voltage drops in the MOS system… EE 130/230 A Fall 2013 Lecture 16, Slide 5

Threshold Condition (VG = VT) • When VG is increased to the point where fs reaches 2 f. F, the surface is said to be strongly inverted. This is the threshold condition. VG = VT (The surface is n-type to the same degree as the bulk is p-type. ) EE 130/230 A Fall 2013 Lecture 16, Slide 8

Strong Inversion (p-type Si) As VG is increased above VT, the negative charge in the Si is increased by adding mobile electrons (rather than by depleting the Si more deeply), so the depletion width remains ~constant at W = WT WT r(x) M O S GATE + + + VG + _ x - - - p-type Si Significant density of mobile electrons at surface (surface is n-type) EE 130/230 A Fall 2013 Lecture 16, Slide 11 R.
