Chapter 1 Basic semiconductor
properties
What is a Semiconductor?
•
•
•
•
Low resistivity : 106  104  cm => conductor
High resistivity : 1010  1018  cm => insulator
Intermediate resistivity: 104  108  cm => semiconductor
The uniqueness of semiconductors is that their conductivity can be
varied over a wide range, e.g. by
– adding minute quantities of impurities
– applying electric field
– illumination

Simple 3-D Unit cells
# of atoms per unit cells
SCC : one atom
BCC : two atoms
FCC : four atoms
Figure 1.2 Simple three-dimensional unit cell. (a) Simple cubic unit cell.
(b) pedantically correct simple cubic unit cell including only the
fractional portion (1/8) of each corner atom actually within the cell
cube. (c) Body-centered cubic unit cell. (d) Face-centered cubic unit
cell (After pierret.)
Simple cubic lattice : packing density
Simple cubic lattice : areal density
Diamond FCC lattice for Si
The Si Crystal
• Each Si atom has 4
nearest neighbors
• lattice constant
= 5.431Å
“diamond cubic” lattice
How Many Silicon Atoms per cm-3?
• Number of atoms in a unit cell:
• 4 atoms completely inside cell
• Each of the 8 atoms on corners are shared among cells
 count as 1 atom inside cell
• Each of the 6 atoms on the faces are shared among 2
cells  count as 3 atoms inside cell
 Total number inside the cell = 4 + 1 + 3 = 8
• Cell volume:
(.543 nm)3 = 1.6 x 10-22 cm3
• Density of silicon atoms
= (8 atoms) / (cell volume) = 5 x 1022 atoms/cm3
Specification of vectors normal to a particular plane!

Fullman Company clients like MEMC and
Mitsubishi Materials Silicon create raw
polycrystalline silicon by mixing refined
trichlorosilane with hydrogen gas in a reaction
furnace and allowing the poly- silicon to grow on
the surface of electrically heated tantalum hollow
metal wicks.
