How to Evaluate Cross-Sectional Area of Junction?

Cross-Sectional Area of Junction evaluator uses Junction Area = Total Acceptor Charge/([Charge-e]*Charge Penetration N-type*Acceptor Concentration) to evaluate the Junction Area, The Cross-Sectional Area of Junction formula is defined as the area of a two-dimensional shape that is obtained when a three-dimensional object - such as a cylinder - is sliced perpendicular to some specified axis at a point. Junction Area is denoted by Aj symbol.

How to evaluate Cross-Sectional Area of Junction using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Cross-Sectional Area of Junction, enter Total Acceptor Charge (|Q|), Charge Penetration N-type (xno) & Acceptor Concentration (Na) and hit the calculate button.
