Q3. MOS capacitor explanation and high frequency characteristics
Ans. 
MOS capacitor is a metal-oxide-semiconductor structure used in electronic devices. It has high frequency characteristics due to its capacitance.
• MOS capacitor consists of a metal gate separated from a semiconductor by a thin insulating layer.

• At high frequencies, the capacitance of the MOS capacitor plays a crucial role in determining its performance.

• The high frequency characteristics of a MOS capacitor are influenced by...read more

Q4. Short channel effects in transistors
Ans. 
Short channel effects refer to the impact of channel length reduction on transistor performance.
• Short channel effects become more pronounced as channel length decreases.

• Effects include increased leakage current, reduced threshold voltage, and reduced drain-induced barrier lowering.

• Examples of short channel effects include velocity saturation and hot carrier effects.
