  • Abstract
    A simple analysis is presented of the effect of illumination on MIS capacitance in the strong inversion region. The two mechanisms responsible for the increase of capacitance under illumination are described: the decrease of the time constant generation of the inversion layer, and the decrease of the space-charge region under illumination. The theoretical results are compared with the experimental data on silicon and tellurium MIS capacitances.
