Decoration (noun). specifically, any mark of honor to be worn upon the person, as a medal, cross, or ribbon of an order of knighthood, bestowed for services in war, great achievements in literature, art, etc. Origin: [LL. decoratio: cf.
A P-N junction (or N-P junction) is formed by creating two substrate materials of P type and N type on a semiconductor. P type means it is doped with free holes (electron depletion) and the N type is doped with electrons. Of course by physics, the free holes and free electrons would like to neutralize each other.
semiconductor. [-kÉndukâ²tÉr]. a solid crystalline substance whose electric conductivity is intermediate between that of a conductor and that of an insulator. An n-type semiconductor has loosely bound electrons that are relatively free to move about inside the material.A p-type semiconductor is one with holes, or positive traps, in which electrons may be bound.The holes may appear to migrate through the material.-kÉndukâ²tÉr]. a solid crystalline substance whose electric conductivity is intermediate between that of a conductor and that of an insulator.
