The following facts are not profound and are possibly very obvious. Nonetheless, they might help cement certain concepts. Please add things you think would be helpful.

Transistors

  • Conduction in n-type material is from free electrons
  • Conduction in p-type material is from holes (positive particles)
  • Metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs)
