# Capacit and Depletion Calculation
## 1 — the plot to get the capacitance at V=)
The plot \( C^{-3} \)in units \(text{f}^{-3 \)) versus \( V \). The straight line passes through the points:
- \( (V = -2, \; C^{-3} = 3) \)
- \( (V = 1, \; C^{-3} = ) \)
The line equation is:
\[
C^{-3} = 1 - V \quad \text{(fF}^{-3})
\]
At \( V= \):
\[
C^{-3} = 1
\]
Thus,
\[
C = (1\ \text{fF}^{-3})^{-1/3} = 1\ \text{fF} = 1 \times 10^{-15}\ \text{F}
\]
---
## Step 2 — Relate capacitance to depletion width
Assuming the junction behaves like a parallel-plate depletion capacitance:
\[
C = \frac{\varepsilon_s A}{W} \quad \Longrightarrow \quad W = \frac{\varepsilon_s A}{C}
\]
where:
- \( \varepsilon_s \) is the semiconductor permittivity.
- \( A \) is the area.
### Compute \( \varepsilon_s \):
Using silicon parameters:
\[
\varepsilon_s = \varepsilon_r \varepsilon_ = 11.7 \times 8.854187817 \times 10^{-12}\ \mathrm{F/m}
\]
Calculate:
\[
\varepsilon_s = 11.7 \times 8.854187817 \times 10^{-12} = \boxed{1.035872 \times 10^{-10}\ \mathrm{F/m}}
\]
### Given values:
- \( A = 1\ \mu\text{m}^2 = 1 \times 10^{-12}\ \mathrm{m}^2 \)
- \( C = 1 \times 10^{-15}\ \mathrm{F} \)
### Compute \( W \):
\[
W = \frac{1.035872 \times 10^{-10} \times 1 \times 10^{-12}}{1 \times 10^{-15}} = 1.035872 \times 10^{-7}\ \mathrm{m}
\]
### Convert to nanometers:
\[
W = 1.035872 \times 10^{-7}\ \mathrm{m} = 103.6\ \mathrm{nm} \approx 1.04 \times 10^{2}\ \mathrm{nm}
\]
---
## **Final Answer:**
**The depletion-region width at \( V= \) is approximately \(\boxed{1.04 \times 10^{2}\ \mathrm{nm}}\) (about 104 nm).**
