Semiconductor Devices
Course Objective :

The paper encompasses the second major area of physics which works as foundation.
It covers the basics of the branch of WAVES. In this branch apart from the introduction to waves other
topics such as sound, basic optical phenomena are covered.
Furthermore a topic on geometrical optics is also involved.
In the electronic section it introduces the two mostly used devices such as semiconductor transistors
and diodes.
Course Contents :
Unit 1: Wave Motion and Waves on String & Sound
Unit 2: Semiconductor Diode& Transistor
Unit 3: Wave Optics: Interference
Unit 4: Wave Optics: Diffraction
Unit 5: Wave Optics: Polarization & Geometric Optics
