"Degenerate" in this sense means "indistinguishable" or more specifically "having the same energy."
Properly speaking, the word shouldn't be used for a single orbital; it refers to the relationship between two or more orbitals. For example, in an isolated atom, the three p orbitals in a given shell are said to be degenerate, since they all have the same energy level.

What are degenerate and non degenerate semiconductors?
Non degenerate semiconductors are those which: -are lightly doped -have less value of electron and hole concentration -violate Pauli's exclusion principle Degenerate semiconductors are those which: -are highly doped -have high value of electron and hole concentration -follow Pauli's exclusion principle
