Where is the thermal conductivity, is the density of the medium, is the specific heat, =, the thermal diffusivity and is the rate of heat generation per unit volume. Heat diffuses from the source following the above equation and solution in an homogeneous medium follows a Gaussian distribution.
For a device that makes use of the secondary breakdown effect see Avalanche transistor. Secondary breakdown is a failure mode in bipolar power transistors. In a power transistor with a large junction area, under certain conditions of current and voltage, the current concentrates in a small spot of the base-emitter junction.
For example, a typical white LED output declines 20% for a 50 °C rise in junction temperature. Because of this temperature sensitivity, LED measurement standards, like IESNA ’s LM-85 Archived 2017-10-18 at the Wayback Machine , require that the junction temperature is determined when making photometric measurements.
The thermal coefficient of electrical circuit parts is sometimes specified as ppm/°C, or ppm/K. This specifies the fraction (expressed in parts per million) that its electrical characteristics will deviate when taken to a temperature above or below the operating temperature.
If the MOSFET is an n-channel or nMOS FET, then the source and drain are n+ regions and the body is a p region. If the MOSFET is a p-channel or pMOS FET, then the source and drain are p+ regions and the body is a n region. The source is so named because it is the source of the charge carriers (electrons for n-channel, holes for p-channel) that ...

In semiconductor electronics, Dennard scaling, also known as MOSFET scaling, is a scaling law which states roughly that, as transistors get smaller, their power density stays constant, so that the power use stays in proportion with area; both voltage and current scale (downward) with length.
is the thermal conductivity (W/(K·m)) of the sample; is the thermal resistivity (K·m/W) of the sample; is the cross-sectional area (m 2) perpendicular to the path of heat flow. In terms of the temperature gradient across the sample and heat flux through the sample, the relationship is:
