Monoxide PbO are amphoteric. Monoxide A monoxide is any oxide containing just one atom of oxygen in the molecule. For example, Potassium oxide (KO), has only one atom of oxygen, and is thus a monoxide. Water (HO) is also a monoxide; see dihydrogen monoxide hoax. A well known monoxide is carbon monoxide (CO); see carbon monoxide poisoning. Most of the members of the Periodic Table form oxides when oxidized. There are two main types of oxides: monoxides and dioxides. Monoxides (generally MO) such as silicon monoxide (SiO) only exist at high temperatures. Among monoxides, CO is neutral, GeO is distinctly acidic,
Gate oxide model the transistor as fringing electric fields can exert an influence on conductors that are not immediately below the gate. The electrical properties of the gate oxide are critical to the formation of the conductive channel region below the gate. In NMOS-type devices, the zone beneath the gate oxide is a thin n-type inversion layer on the surface of the p-type semiconductor substrate. It is induced by the oxide electric field from the applied gate voltage V. This is known as the inversion channel. It is the conduction channel that allows the electrons to flow from the source to the
