Or Which yields Comment We can note that, since the hole diffusion current is positive, the hole gradient must be negative, which implies that the value of hole concentration at x 0.01 must be smaller than the concentration at x 0. Exercise Problem EX4.5 Assume that ,in an n-type GaAs seniconductor at T 300K, the electron concentration varies linearly from to over a distance of 0.10cm. Calculate the magnitude of the diffusion current densit if the diffusion coefficient is 4.22 Total Current Density We now have four possible independent current mechanisms in semiconductor. These components
