PN junctions and methods

A PN junction includes first and second areas of silicon, wherein one of the first and second areas is n-type silicon and the other of the first and second areas is p-type silicon. The first area has one or more projections which at least partially overlap with the second area, so as to form at leas...

Zusammenfassung:A PN junction includes first and second areas of silicon, wherein one of the first and second areas is n-type silicon and the other of the first and second areas is p-type silicon. The first area has one or more projections which at least partially overlap with the second area, so as to form at least one cross-over point, the cross-over point being a point at which an edge of the first area crosses over an edge of the second area.
