Question: Consider a silicon wafer that has a uniform doping concentration of 1 . 4 0 x 1 0 1 6 cm - 3 donor atoms.

Consider a silicon wafer that has a uniform doping concentration of 1.40 x 1016 cm-3 donor atoms. A pn junction is formed in an area of the wafer by the addition of 2.25 x 1016 cm-* acceptors. Assuming room temperature (300 K):

p-type side of the junction.
Using the full depletion approximation, calculate the total
depletion region width of the pn junction with zero applied bias.
