Description:
This course will provide an overview of the
fabrication and operation of silicon-based integrated circuits including
resistors, diodes, transistors and their current-voltage (I-V)
characteristics. Laboratory exercises
teach the basics of IC fabrication and I-V measurements. Oxidation/diffusion, photolithography
(spin/bake/expose/develop), etch, and vapor deposition equipment allow students
the opportunity to design, build, and test simple solid-state devices.
