To see subtitles in other languages: Click on the gear symbol under the video, then click on "subtitles." Then select the language (You may need to scroll up and down to see all the languages available).
--To change subtitle appearance: Scroll to the top of the language selection window and click "options." In the options window you can, for example, choose a different font color and background color, and set the "background opacity" to 100% to help make the subtitles more readable.
--To turn the subtitles "on" or "off" altogether: Click the "CC" button under the video.
--If you believe that the translation in the subtitles can be improved, please send me an email.

Eugene is back. I started watching him 5 years ago and still watch today :D thanks for this experience .

I put my heart and my soul into Physics after watching this channel.
Nothing's boring in this universe if you tell a good story.

Brilliant, as always. This, and 3blue1brown, are two of the most enlightening channels on YouTube. Thank you, sir!

Our lord and saviour has posted once more

[GStar]

This is what I wanted!
Please make a video for LASER also if possible

[hajarmouqadem]

The music on your videos personally keeps me more concentrated and curious throughout the length of the videos. Thank you so much for this extraordinarly instructive content!

Plz more on semiconductors! I adore this channel🥰 i hope you all are safe and healthy!♥️♥️

The genius of this video is the depiction of the rising and lowering electron energy levels with the differing 1) N or P doping; 2) voltages applied across the diodes; 3) direction of applied voltages; and 4) location of contacts allowing current flow. For those of us who are right hemisphere and cerebellar thinkers, this makes it very memorable. It just makes sense to see the electrons having to struggle to move up steeper or less steep energy level “hills”. Well done.

You are super creative Eugene! The best intuitive video ever watched about the PN junction diode and NPN transistor. keep creating this kind of content to solidify the base of upcoming science students.

Thank you so, so much. These are the best animations and explanations I have come across for physics. What I previously thought were just dull words on paper have turned into beautiful new ways of thought and exploration. You are a hero and an inspiration.

Semiconductors were a tough thing to get my head around in electronics class, the professor was great, but couldn't explain the physics. This will likely be my new mental model. Thanks!

School without going to school. Thank you so much for taking your time to educate world wide curious minds 😊

[danielwerner]

I had a lecture about semiconductors at university and I learned about it at school but nothing gave me a picture about its functionality as nice as this video!
Really happy I found this channel.

[角翼-je]

Great!
I wish I had met this video in my student days...

[vaheakli]

Прекраснейшая визуализация вопроса, долго меня мучавшего, спасибо!) Я не изучал физику на серьезном уровне, но всегда было интересно как все устроено, спасибо за ваш канал!

[rsmrsm]

Excellent graphics and explanations. It is difficult to find in-depth explanations about this. This video shows in a simple and well explained way how these semiconductors work.
I've been looking for this for a long time. It's always good to share knowledge in an accessible way.
Thank you and congratulations.

This video had helped me much when I tried to understand this chapter at school because gravitational potential energy is something every large organism can intuitively understand and it is a perfect analogy so these animations are absolutely amazing at explaining the PN junction and transistors.

I love the quantized aspect of the visualization. Between the energy levels, but also between the available positions the electrons and holes can take in space.
