Draw a box around your final answer. Problem 1 When majority carriers pile up at the oxide-Si interface, what is the bias condition? Accumulation. Flat-band. Depletion. Deep depletion. Inversion. What is important about the condition, ({psi _S} = 2{psi _B})? It is the flat-band condition. It is the boundary between accumulation and depletion. It is the boundary between depletion and inversion. It is the boundary between accumulation and inversion. It is the condition for which the semiconductor is intrinsic at the surface. How does the width of the depletion region vary with surface potential? As (left| {{psi _S}} right|) As ({left| {{psi _S}} right|^{1/2}}) As ({left| {{psi _S}} right|^0}) As ({left| {{psi _S}} right|^{ - 1/2}}) As ({left| {{psi _S}} right|^{ - 1}}) What is the physical meaning of the term, (-Q_S(psi_s)/C_{ox})? It is the voltage drop across the semiconductor. It is the voltage drop across the semiconductor-oxide interface. It is the voltage drop across the inversion layer. It is the voltage drop across the oxide. It is the metal-semiconductor work function difference. For ({V_G} > {V_T}), additional increases in gate voltage increase the surface potential very little (i.e. the surface potential stays at about (2{psi _B})). Why? Because most of the increase in gate voltage increases the volt drop across the semiconductor. Because most of the increase in gate voltage increases the volt drop across the oxide. Because "deep depletion" occurs. Because avalanche breakdown limits the potential drop across the semiconductor. Because of strong Zener tunneling. Consider an MOS-C in equilibrium with an N-type semiconductor and a metal gate with a workfunction smaller than the semiconductor. Which of the following is true about the semiconductor? It is at the flat-band condition. It is in accumulation. It is in deep depletion. It is in breakdown. It is in depletion or inversion depending on the magnitude of ({Phi _M} - {Phi _S}). How are "high" and "low -frequency" MOS C-V characteristics different? In accumulation, the high-frequency cap is lower than the low-frequency cap. At flat-band, the high-frequency capacitance is lower than the low-frequency cap. In depletion, the high-frequency capacitance is lower than the low-frequency cap. In depletion, the high-frequency capacitance is higher than the low-frequency cap. In inversion the high-frequency capacitance is lower than the low-frequency cap. Which of the following is true about the mobile electron charge in C/cm2 in a P-type semiconductor? There is no mobile charge for ({V_{GS}} < {V_T}). The mobile charge varies as (e^{q^{V_{GS}/{k_BT}}}) below and above threshold. The mobile charge varies as (e^{q^{V_{GS}/{mk_BT}}}) below and above threshold. The mobile charge varies as (e^{q^{V_{GS}/{mk_BT}}}) below threshold and as (left( {{V_{GS}} - {V_T}} right)) above threshold. The mobile charge varies as (left( {{V_{GS}} - {V_T}} right)) below threshold and as (e^{q^{V_{GS}/{mk_BT}}}) above threshold. As we reduce the channel length of a MOSFET without changing anything else, what three effects occur? DIBL decreases, SS increases, punch-through voltage decreases. DIBL increases, SS increases, punch-through voltage decreases. DIBL decreases, SS decreases, punch-through voltage decreases. DIBL increases, SS decreases, punch-through voltage decreases. DIBL decreases, SS increases, punch-through voltage increases. How are the on-current and off-current of a MOSFET related? A linear increase in on-current will give a linear increase in off-current. An exponential increase in on-current will give a linear increase in off-current. A linear increase in on-current will give an exponential increase in off-current. A linear increase in on-current will give a linear decrease in off-current. An exponential increase in on-current will give a linear decrease in off-current. Problem 2 (20 points) This problem is about the MOS capacitor whose energy band diagram is shown below. The semiconductor is silicon at 300K with ({n_i} = {10^{10}};{rm{c}}{{rm{m}}^{{rm{ - 3}}}}), and the insulator is SiO2 with a relative dielectric constant of 3.9 and a thickness of 2 nm.

Assume an L = 22 nm version of this MOSFET. What is the injection velocity? You may assume that it is a well-designed MSOFET with a bottleneck region that is 10% of the channel length.

Assume W = 1 micrometer, that the gate capacitance in strong inversion is (C_{inv} = 2.0 {mu} F/cm^2), and the series resistance are ({R_S} = {R_D} = 50;Omega ). You may also assume that ({V_{TN}} = left| {{V_{TP}}} right| = 0.2)V. The linear region current of the N-MOSFET is given by({I_{DLIN}} = frac{W}{L}{mu _n}{C_{inv}}left( {{V_{GS}} - {I_D}{R_S} - {V_{TN}}} right)left[ {{V_{DS}} - {I_D}left( {{R_S} + {R_D}} right)} right])What is the corresponding expression for the P-MOSFET? Note that ID > 0 for current flowing into the drain of the N-MOSFET and ID > 0 for current flowing out of the drain of the P-MOSFET.

A strictly оutcоme-fоcused (аct-utilitаriаn) analysis can judge it acceptable to shift risk from riders to pedestrians if total casualties decrease.

A mаjоr fintech cоmpаny hаs launched an advanced AI system tо automate loan approvals, aiming to promote financial inclusion and drive economic growth. After its rollout, data scientists report that the total number of approved loans and the overall dollar value distributed have reached record highs, which is celebrated as a major success by executives and shareholders. However, a deeper analysis reveals that while approval rates have increased for all groups, the largest loans with the lowest interest rates disproportionately go to wealthier applicants. The company’s leadership meets to discuss potential next steps. Which policy would most closely align with a utilitarian approach to distributive justice?

Fоr mоderаting misinfоrmаtion, deciding cаse-by-case is more faithful to utilitarianism than adopting a general policy shown to work better across many cases.
