For information on semiconductor physics, see semiconductor. Semiconductor devices are electronic components that exploit the electronic properties of semiconductor materials, principally silicon, germanium, and gallium arsenide, as well as organic semiconductors.Semiconductor devices have replaced thermionic devices (vacuum tubes) in most applications. semiconductor diode is a device typically made from a single pân junction. At the junction of a p-type and an n-type semiconductor there forms a depletion region where current conduction is inhibited by the lack of mobile charge carriers.
In a semiconductor material, the flow of holes occurs in a direction opposite to the flow of electrons. Elemental semiconductors include antimony, arsenic, boron, carbon, germanium, selenium, silicon, sulfur, and tellurium. Silicon is the best-known of these, forming the basis of most integrated circuits (IC s).Common semiconductor compounds include gallium arsenide, indium antimonide, and the oxides of most metals.Of these, gallium arsenide (GaAs) is widely used in low-noise, high-gain, weak-signal amplifying devices.A semiconductor device can perform the function of a vacuum tube having hundreds of times its volume.ommon semiconductor compounds include gallium arsenide, indium antimonide, and the oxides of most metals.
