Figure: The nonconductive depletion region becomes broader with increased reverse bias.
(Note: The two gate regions of each FET are connected to each other.)
Figure: If vDG exceeds the breakdown voltage VB, drain current increases rapidly.

The Drain (D) and Source (S) leads connect to the to n-doped regions
These N-doped regions are connected via an n-channel
This n-channel is connected to the Gate (G) via a thin insulating layer of
SiO2
The n-doped material lies on a p-doped substrate that may have an
additional terminal connection called SS
