- Estimated study time: 30 minutes
Study resources
- Fundamentals of Semiconductor Devices - IISc Bangalore (Article) — Weeks 2 and 3 cover drift and diffusion current components, carrier mobility, and derive the continuity equation. Most YouTube courses skip the continuity equation, which is why this one is here.
- Introduction to Semiconductor Devices - IIT Hyderabad (Article) — Week 2 covers carrier generation-recombination, the physical process the continuity equation formalises.
- Neso Academy - Analog Electronics: Semiconductor Physics (Drift & Diffusion Current) (Video) — Covers drift current, diffusion current and total current density - the building blocks needed to derive the continuity equation.
- SlideShare Notes - Basics of Semiconductor, Current Equation, Continuity Equation (Article) — Indian engineering college notes deriving drift/diffusion current density, the continuity equation, and injected minority carrier concentration step by step.
