Transistor working | Class 12 (India) | Physics | Khan Academy

Let's explore what transistors are and they (more specifically a Bipolar junction transistor) work as an amplifier.
Learn the next topic here --www.khanacademy.org/science/i...
Class 12 Semiconductors: We cannot imagine our life without computers today. But what makes a computer tick? What's making this technology grow at such an exponential rate? It's all due to semiconductors. As unbelievable as that might sound, altering the properties of semiconductors allows us to build these computers. In this topic, we will explore the world of semiconductors. It's a journey from what semiconductors are all the way to creating building blocks of these computers.

    I almost felt like crying 'cause i couldn't understand the concept of transistor no matter how many videos i watch, no matter how many times my teacher explains to me. This video cleared all my confusion and gave a very clear explanation. Also, when the teacher in the video explains things he sounds so excited and happy that it makes me feel like I am actually studying something very exciting. Thank you for this video. It saved my day.

    Sir, at 04:55, you mentioned that no amount of supplied voltage would cause flow of electrons due to the presence of the barrier in the PN Junction. But a PN Junction is weakened by increasing voltage, right? So doesn't a weak barrier result in more flow of electrons sir? Kindly clarify

  • @KhanAcademyIndiaEnglish

    @KhanAcademyIndiaEnglish

    3 жыл бұрын

    There are two barriers, right? Almost all the supplied voltage comes across the top barrier (collector/base junction) reverse biasing it. The lower PN barrier (Emitter/base junction) is pretty much unaffected, and so electrons cannot be pulled out.

    I don't think every electron gets the chance to recombine because P region is very lightly doped. And before an electron gets the chance to recombine, it might get pulled into the 0.7v terminal because the probability of recombination is very less here.
