This paper presents a numerical analysis of the mechanisms of operation within a linearly-graded p-n junction. Considered in this analysis are three important modes of junction operation: equilibrium, forward bias, and reverse bias in the collector junction. In addition, calculations of electrical space-charge layer capacitance are presented for the forward-biased linearly-graded junction. The conclusions derived are compared, in graphical form, with the results of previous investigations of the linearly-graded junction.
