Q.46 Consider avalanche breakdown in a silicon junction. The n-region is uniformly doped with a donor density
Assume that breakdown occurs when the magnitude of the electric field at any point in the device becomes equal to the critical filed
Assume
to be independent of
. If the built-in voltage of the
junction is much smaller than the breakdown voltage,
the relationship between
and
is given by
