Pre-requisite: H2 Physics 

Preclusion: This course cannot be offered together with MOE H3 Physics

SEMICONDUCTOR PHYSICS & DEVICES is designed to stimulate students’ interest and broaden their educational experience in Science and Engineering. It is intended for students wishing to pursue deeper studies in Physics and Semiconductors. 

Students enrolled in the course will learn the theories and properties of semiconductors, and the physics and operating principles of semiconductor devices. Hands-on laboratory sessions on semiconductor materials and devices will be provided to supplement the learning of the course. Students will also acquire an understanding and appreciation of the evolution of semiconductor technologies and the driving force behind their convergence. 

The course will be conducted through lectures, tutorials and laboratory sessions. 

Assessment will be based on the following components: 

  • Laboratory Assignments (Report & Viva) 
  • Two 1-hour Written Mid-Term Tests 
  • One 2.5-hour Written Examination 

The lectures and tutorials for NTU-H3 Semiconductor Physics & Devices will be conducted at Hwa Chong Institution (HCI), while the laboratory sessions will take place in the laboratories of the School of Electronic and Electrical Engineering (EEE) on the NTU campus.

Attendance is compulsory for all lectures, tutorials, and laboratory sessions. Any absences must be supported with a medical certificate (MC) or an official letter of excuse from the student's school. CCA practices, school events, supplementary and remedial lessons are not valid reasons to request a leave of absence.

 

The application outcome will be released through the H3 School Coordinators.
