(a) Calculate the free-electron density in the channel that is required


for the MOSFET to present a resistance of 2kOhm between source and drain
at low value of VDS and for 0V substrate bias.

(b) Calculate the gate voltage in excess of the threshold voltage needed
to produce the desired resistance under the same conditions. At which ab-
solute value of gate voltage do we obtain this resistance?

All the capacitors are zero except the oxide capacity (and η = 1).
We ask the amplitude for the small signal voltage at the drain and the
amplitude of the small signal current at the gate.

However, MOSFETs have been built with circular geometry, as pictured
