Q3. What is a diode and how does it work?
Ans. 
A diode is a semiconductor device that allows current to flow in one direction only.
• A diode has two terminals - an anode and a cathode.

• It works by allowing current to flow from the anode to the cathode when a forward voltage is applied.

• When a reverse voltage is applied, the diode blocks the current flow.

• Diodes are commonly used in rectifiers, voltage regulators, and signal demodulation.

• Examples of diodes include silico...read more

Q4. Biasing of a diode and it's voltage and current characteristics.
Ans. 
Biasing of a diode refers to applying a DC voltage across the diode to control its voltage and current characteristics.
• Biasing a diode involves applying a DC voltage across it in order to control its operation.

• Forward biasing occurs when the positive terminal of the voltage source is connected to the anode of the diode.

• Reverse biasing occurs when the negative terminal of the voltage source is connected to the anode of ...read more

Q5. Fabrication process of a mosfet
Ans. 
The fabrication process of a MOSFET involves creating the various layers and structures that make up the transistor.
• Start with a silicon wafer as the base material

• Create the gate oxide layer on top of the wafer

• Deposit polysilicon to form the gate electrode

• Implant dopants to create the source and drain regions

• Add metal layers for interconnects

• Perform various lithography and etching steps to define the transistor's featu

Q6. Working and different regions of operations of the mosfet.
Ans. 
MOSFET operates in different regions: cutoff, triode, saturation. Each region has specific characteristics.
• Cutoff region: MOSFET is off, no current flows

• Triode region: MOSFET acts as a resistor, linear relationship between Vgs and Id

• Saturation region: MOSFET acts as a current source, Vds is small and Id is relatively constant
