    Programs Can I get a Ph.D. in physics if my bachelor's degree isn't in physics

    I currently pursuing engineering in electronics can I go in the field of astrophysics in higher studies like or even after masters in electronics also after giving some exam on physics aptitute ?

    Graduate Fermi Energy and Fermi Level in Semiconductors

    Sir I have in searched about TCAD tools. They are a very useful resource in learning semiconductor devices. Can you list me some resources to learn TCAD or some online certification course on TCAD basics? Thanking You

    Graduate Fermi Energy and Fermi Level in Semiconductors

    Sir you have assisted his me a lot on this topic. I am thankful to you. Being an undergraduate electronics engineer I need to do a project related to semiconductor devices. As I am very much interested in semiconductor physics can you suggest me an UG Level research project on the same requiring...

    Graduate Fermi Energy and Fermi Level in Semiconductors

    Sir you haven't replied as the analogies pertaining to Fermi Level are bit confusing so I want to crystal clear my concept or you can give me some reference.

    Graduate Fermi Energy and Fermi Level in Semiconductors

    How can we relate the surface of the sea level with the Fermi Level knowing that surface of sea Level contains water but the Fermi Level lies in the forbidden gap at which electron density is zero?

    Of course I want to study this concept with more precise analogy.

    Graduate Fermi Energy and Fermi Level in Semiconductors

    With our discussion I have come across the following points regarding Fermi level *Fermi level is the just an energy level where the value of Fermi Dirac function comes to be .5 *Fermi level is in forbidden gap where density of states is zero therefore no electron will exist at FL. *When...

    Graduate Fermi Energy and Fermi Level in Semiconductors

    The top of the sea level is analogous to valence band or Fermi Level. Let me clear the matter if we say that Fermi level is just an energy level at which probability is 0.5 but having zero electron density being in the forbidden gap. But it is only used as a reference energy level and actually...

    Graduate Fermi Energy and Fermi Level in Semiconductors

    I am very much satisfied with the definition of Fermi Level But again unable to apply this analogy. If we have considered Fermi Level as electron sea level but not containing electron. Then while describing carrier flow across a p-n junction we say that due to Fermi level difference the...

    Graduate Fermi Energy and Fermi Level in Semiconductors

    We generally say that the Fermi energy level is the highest occupied energy level at 0K. Fermi level is compared to be surface of the electron sea in a material. Thus it is considered as the top most occupied energy level by the electrons. This is one definition and if we apply concept of Fermi...
