Technology of Semiconductors (TS 1)

Electronic document: 
Créditos Totales: 
4.0
Delivery dates: 
First semester
Type of subject: 
Itinerario I2
Instructional Objectives: 

The objective of this course is for students to acquire a basic knowledge of the most important technological processes applied to semiconductor materials used primarily in the field of nano- and microelectronics. Furthermore, the main effects that these techno-logical processes have on the optical and electrical properties will be explained as well as their application in optoelectronic devices.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE COURSE AND METHODOLOGY

For the development of the course there will be theory participative classes and discus-sion sessions and resolution practical problems. A collaborative teaching methodology will be used, promoting student-teacher interaction in tutoring and student-student, through discussions.
