Read the Diffusion current class notes.


In some region of a semiconductor, the electron concentration varies linearly with distance, as shown below,
with n1 = 8.0e+14 cm-3 and W = 0.1 μm.

Calculate the electron diffusion current density at any point 0 < x < W.

The electron diffusion coefficient is Dn = 35 cm2/V·s.
