What is importance of band gap in semiconductors?
bandgap has an importance role for conduction.if bandgap is max,the conduction of electron is min. and vice-versa.hence we can say that the bandgap desides the conductivity of any material(may be...
What is the energy band gap of a semiconductor?
It is in a range of 1eV. (eV=electron volt)
What are the applications of direct and indirect band gap semiconductors in devices?
direct band gap means in e-k diagram valance bands are exactly below covalance band,in this band electron falls from the conduction band to valance band directly without going to metastable state and...
What is the highest band gap value for semiconductors?
Fairly certain Beryllium Oxide is an extrinsic semiconductor with band gap 10.6 eV. Otherwise the answer is Boron Nitride (6.36 eV)
What are the direct band gap material?
Direct band gap means in E-K diagram valance bands are exactly below covalance band,in this band electon fall's c.b to v.b direct without going to metastable state
