Semiconductors are materials that have a conductivity between conductors and insulators, which can be modified by doping or external factors. Semiconductors are widely used in electronic devices, such as diodes, transistors, and integrated circuits. There are two main types of semiconductors: intrinsic and extrinsic. Intrinsic semiconductors are pure semiconductors without any significant impurities or dopants. … Read more
A semiconductor is a material that has electrical conductivity between a conductor and an insulator. Semiconductors have a moderate electrical conductivity that can be controlled and modified by various external factors, such as temperature, impurities, or an applied electric field. This property makes semiconductors essential components in electronic devices and integrated circuits. What is Semiconductor … Read more
In solid-state physics, the concept of energy bands is crucial for understanding the electronic structure of solids. Energy bands represent ranges of energy levels that electrons in a solid can occupy. The key concepts related to energy bands in solids are the valence band, the conduction band, and the band gap. The energy bands are … Read more
