Course Description: An examination of modern characterization techniques routinely employed to determine semiconductor material and device parameters. Concepts and theory underlying the techniques are reviewed, and sample experimental results are presented. Emphasis is on techniques employing electrical measurements. Course Objectives: This course is intended for graduate students in MN and related areas who are either i) interested in pursuing research in semiconductor materials, structures or devices, or ii) seeking the broad device background on the-state-of-the-art technologies for a future R&D career in the microelectronic industry. Fundamentals State-of-the-art
Teaching Philosophy for ECE 658 • Motto “Durch Messung zu Wissen”(German) “During or through measurement to understand” (English) • The best way to learn ECE 658 is to measure the devices in the lab and understand what you are measuring. • 4 lectures + 2 hours (lab or discussion sessions) every two weeks
