Electrons in silicon have a mobility of 1000 cm /V-sec. The electric field is applied to make the
electrons reach a velocity of 3 x 10' cm/sec. Assume that the mobility is constant and
independent of the electric field. What voltage is required to obtain this field in a 5 um thick
region? How much time do the electrons need to cross the 5 um thick region?
6. (a)Use voltage division to determine the voltage vo across the 400resistor.
(b)Use ve from part (a) to determine the current through the 4002resistor, and use this voltage and
current division to calculate the current in the 3002resistor.
