Every integrated circuit in every piece of technology has to uses micro or even nano transistors.

    Absolutely fantastic! As oposed to many other similar tutorials, this one addresses the fact that the layers are doped with different amounts, which makes a huge difference in understanding. It also says what materials can be used to dope the silicon. This must have been created by someone who had missed the full explanation himself and then when he finally got it he wanted to share it with the others so that nothing is left unaddressed.

    Back in the days of using house antennas (90's), I once used some old telephone wire to bring it to my room. It was then that I learned the difference between just any type of wire and Coaxial cable. The old telephone wire was not capable of providing a strong enough reception, which I later replaced with coaxial which was infinitely better.

    Fun fact: the thumbnail for me showed the very famous 2N2222 transistor.
    For this transistor the explanation seemingly completely breaks down, because the 2N2222A transistor can amplify (and work as an oscillator with LC filter) without its base pin.
    You can snip out the base pin, and use the emitter and collector and can get a amplification from the device (kind of negative differential resistance)

    Could you please explain what is happening when you plug too many things into an outlet, say via a power strip, that it causes an overload.
    I assumed that everything would just receive less power, but instead it is acting like the devices are causing more power to be drawn. So it's not like electricity is just traveling through a path, but instead is being pulled. So, kind of confused.

    5:25, can you explain why the electrons don’t keep moving left? Would the significant net positive charge continue to attract them?

    • @АлексейБаскинов
      @АлексейБаскинов 2 года назад

      I think the attraction of the positive charge on the right doesn't let them do that. The forces that could make the electrons move further to the left are kinetic energy of the atoms in the P-region and energy of covalent bonds of the atoms there, and these energies are not enough to overcome the attraction of the positive charge on the right completely; thus there is balance, but no flow of electrons without external voltage applied. That's how I imagine it to be, but I'm not sure if I get it right. ☺ Sorry for intruding with my opinion.

    You did not explain what happens if the negative of the source voltage ie: battery is connected to the base and positive to the emitter in an NPN transistor or how that relates to a PNP transistor. Or if that is something one would not do or if it is, why one would want to do that. Also is it necessary to have two source connected one forward and one reverse in order for the transistor to work. This question is a result of you showing two voltage sources connected to one transistor without explaining why you did that with one source connected from base to emitter and the other emitter to collector. Again no explanation given for why you did both and how that relates to a PNP transistor.
