Ideal diodeequation (cont.) • Js = Js,p + Js,n = hole curr + elecurr Js,p = qni2Dpcoth(Wn/Lp)/(NdLp) = qni2Dp/(NdWn), Wn<< Lp, “short” = qni2Dp/(NdLp), Wn>> Lp, “long” Js,n = qni2Dncoth(Wp/Ln)/(NaLn) = qni2Dn/(NaWp), Wp<< Ln, “short” = qni2Dn/(NaLn), Wp>> Ln, “long” Js,n<< Js,p when Na >> Nd
Summary of Va > 0 current density eqns. • Ideal diode, Jsexpd(Va/(hVt)) • ideality factor, h • Recombination, Js,recexp(Va/(2hVt)) • appears in parallel with ideal term • High-level injection, (Js*JKF)1/2exp(Va/(2hVt)) • SPICE model by modulating ideal Js term • Va = Vext - J*A*Rs = Vext - Idiode*Rs

Calculating k/q For Vt = kT/q = 0.025852 V, (T=300K) Then k/q = Vt/300K = 8.6173E-5 V/K
