Bulk
effect |
|
| Generally flows through MOSFET and is controlled by
the potential gate. Nevertheless, bulk potential has unwanted
parasitic effects. A bulk effect diode derived from bulk
effect is a device which uses many effects generated
among semiconductor crystals by attached ohm contact
in order not to formulate two electrodes in a semiconductor crystal. |

LED |
|
Light emission diode is a semiconductor device
that emits visible light when an electric current passes through it.
The light is not particularly bright, but in most LEDs it is monochromatic,
Some LEDs emit infrared energy such as a light emission diode. |

Mesa TypeTransistor |
|
Composed of an emitter or base using diffusion technology on silicon or
germanium substrate and also vacuum amplification, printing photograph technology.
We use this term, mesa, because sections are made by bench type.
A Mesa transistor has advantages over high frequency,
enduring voltage, such as equality of production being higher than compound metal types. |

Photodiode
|
|
| Photodiodes are P-N junctions specifically designed to optimize their inherent photosensitivity.
Photodiodes can be used two ways - in a photovoltaic or photoconductive role.
To use photodiodes in their photoconductive mode, the photodiode is reverse-biased;
the photodiode will then allow a current to flow when it is illuminated. |

PN junction |
|
Meeting zone (area) of positive polarity and negative polarity.
Any free charge, which wanders into the depletion zone, finds itself in a region with no other free charges.
Locally it sees a lot of positive charges (the donor atoms) on the n-type side and a lot of negative charges
(the acceptor atoms) on the p-type side. These exert a force on the free charge,
driving it back to its 'own side' of the junction away from the depletion zone.
P-type Semiconductor
Under a zero electric field and equilibrium,
a p-type semiconductor contains a majority
of holes and few electrons. (I placed "holes"
in the blank based on the next entry.)
P-type
silicon is usually obtained by doping with
acceptor ions.
N-type semiconductor
Under a zero electric field and equilibrium,
an n-type semiconductor contains a majority
of holes and few electrons. P-type silicon
is usually obtained by doping with donor ions. |

SOI
: silicon on insulator |
|
A chip architecture that increases the transistor
switching speed by reducing capacitance (build-up
of electrical charges in the transistor's
elements), and thus reducing the discharge
time.
The power requirement is also reduced
in some designs. The SOI technique creates
the transistors on a thin top silicon layer
that is separated from the silicon substrate
by a thin insulating layer of glass or silicon
dioxide. One method of forming this insulating
layer is the Separation by Implantation of
Oxygen (SIMOX) technique, which implants oxygen
into the wafer under intense heat. |

Transister
|
|
| An amplifier with Germanium, it is composed
to stand over the 2pn junction and able to
be categorized as a PNP and NTN transistor.
Among the three terminals in the transistor,
the coordinate 1~2 terminal is a common terminal,
the second is for inputting and the third
is an output terminal for amplification. |

6T(IT,BT,NT,ST,ET,CT)
|
|
| 6T is technology for the future. |
IT
(Information Technology) |
IT
is not only for computers, software
or services. IT is a combination of
all these elements, capped by a vision
on how technology can help an organization
to reach its goals. Today, businesses
are concentrating on their core activities
in their struggle to survive. The IT
department has to do ever more with
less. Under these circumstances, the
need for well-informed IT professionals
exists. |
BT
(Bio-technology) |
The
use of biological processes, as through
the exploitation and manipulation of
living organisms or biological systems,
in the development or manufacture of
a product or in the technological solution
to a problem. As such, biotechnology
is a general category that has applications
in pharmacology, medicine, agriculture,
and many other fields. |
NT
(Nano-technology)
|
Nanotechnology
is a general term that refers to technology
which enables the control and manipulation
of atoms and molecules at their level
(10~9mm). NT allows for the creation
of a new area of scientific technology
or the enhancement of a pre-existing
product's functions. We assume NT will
become a core technology along with
IT, BT, and ET, and a revolutionary
one. Even thought NT is becoming a core
technology related to IT, BT, ET, it's
in the preliminary stage and the expected
ripple effects will be very broad and
strong. |
ST
(Space technology) |
Space
technology is acknowledged as a combined
technology related to satellites, projectiles,
and aircraft development. It also is
expected to affect system technology
as it requires high technology in order
to work with electronics, semiconductors,
computers and materials. ST can contribute
to raising technological levels, especially
when we behind in development compared
to other advance countries. |
ET
(Environment Technology)
|
Environment
technology is an approach to the design
of human-machine interfaces that seek
to provide users with a sense of immersion
in a computer-generated, synthetic world.
This technology researches the total
of all the surrounding natural conditions
that affect the existence of living
organism on Earth, including air, water,
soil, and minerals, therefore the local
complex of such conditions affects a
particular organism and ultimately determines
its physiology and survival. |
CT
(Culture Technology)
|
This
term refers to technology for developing
new culture and the art industry based
on digital media. Recently, demand is
high for digital contents due to revitalization
of the Internet and improvement of digital
technology. This technology is expected
to maximize our creativity by a technology-knowledge
integrated industry feature which is
necessary in order to further new cultural
and art industry development based on
high value-added digital media. |
