Abstract
The characteristic non-linear differential equation which arises from Poisson's relation for the static distribution of charge is analysed for its solutions when either rather loose or restrictive boundary conditions provail. While the former admits a number of closed form solutions, an inverse series solution, appropriate particularly for diverse impurity distributions in the p-n junction, is developed for the spatial variation of the electrostatic potential.
