Delta layer

Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-002978

A very thin, highly concentrated layer of dopant atoms embedded within a semiconductor material. This layer is typically only a few atomic layers thick and is formed by precise control during deposition processes. Delta layers are used in advanced electronic devices to create specific electrical properties and quantum confinement effects.
