2010-Properties of Transistors

From McGill University Physics Department Technical Services Wiki

Transistors are commonly used semiconductor devices. Understanding the properties of transistors is crucial for understanding modern electronics. In this experiment, we constructed the charateristic curves for bipolar junction transistor and field effect transistors. The temperature dependence of the junction field effect transistors is also studied. We found that the saturated drain current changes by -19.7 ± 0.2 μA / °C as temperature increases.
