PN Junction Length Formula Elements

Variables
PN Junction Length
PN Junction Length is defined as the total length of the junction from p-side to n-side in a semiconductor.
Symbol: Lpn
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Depletion Region Width
Depletion Region Width in a typical Si diode ranges from a fraction of a micrometer to tens of micrometers depending on device geometry, doping profile, and external bias.
Symbol: Ld
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Effective Channel Length
Effective Channel Length is defined as the path that links the charge carriers between the drain and the source.
Symbol: Leff
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
