6 To achieve a merit in this unit, a candidate must demonstrate a superior or more sophisticated level of performance. In this unit this might be shown in the following ways: (i) (ii) displaying a greater depth of knowledge of the physics of semiconductor devices; displaying evidence of further reading or study. ASSESSMENT In order to achieve this unit, candidates are required to present sufficient evidence that they have met all the performance criteria for each outcome within the range specified. Details of these requirements are given for each outcome. The assessment instruments used should follow the general guidance offered by the Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA) assessment model and an integrative approach to assessment is encouraged. (See references at the end of support notes). Accurate records should be made of the assessment instruments used showing how evidence is generated for each outcome and giving marking schemes and/or checklists, etc. Records of candidates achievements should be kept. These records will be available for external verification. SPECIAL NEEDS Proposals to modify outcomes, range statements or agreed assessment arrangements should be discussed in the first place with the external verifier.

7 HIGHER NATIONAL UNIT SPECIFICATION SUPPORT NOTES Unit number: Unit title: PHYSICS OF SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES SUPPORT NOTES: This part of the unit specification is offered as guidance. None of the sections of the support notes is mandatory. NOTIONAL DESIGN LENGTH: SQA allocates a notional design length to a unit on the basis of time estimated for achievement of the stated standards by a candidate whose starting point is as described in the access statement. The notional design length for this unit is 80 hours. The use of notional design length for programme design and timetabling is advisory only. PURPOSE The purpose of this unit is to introduce the candidates to the physics of semiconductor devices currently being manufactured and the impact of future trends on the fabrication processes. NOTE: It is strongly recommended that centres which offer this course/unit should have close and continuing links with the appropriate industry and must provide evidence of an integrated approach to the course delivery. CONTENT/CONTEXT This unit should be delivered in the context of manufacturing techniques which are currently in use in the semiconductor industry. It may also be delivered in conjunction with HN Unit Introduction to Semiconductor Devices and Fabrication Processes and an integrative approach to delivery and assessment is recommended. A minimum of 3 common semiconductor devices should be covered in outcomes 1 and 2. Candidates should be encouraged to use periodicals in research of the trends which may impact the current semiconductor fabrication processes. ASSESSMENT PROCEDURES Centres may use the Instruments of Assessment which are considered to be the most appropriate. Examples of Instruments of Assessment which could be used are as follows: Outcome 1 Outcome 2 Structured questions Practical assignment/case study/project 7
8 Outcome 3 Outcome 4 Structured questions Case study/project/assignment. REFERENCES 1. Guide to unit writing, SQA, 1993 (Code: A018). 2. Guide to assessment, SQA, 1993 (Code: B005). 3.
