This document contains a lecture on conductors, insulators, and semiconductors given by Mr. Gouri Kumar Sahu. It discusses how the conduction properties of solids depend on factors like the occupation of energy bands and the size of the band gap. Conductors have overlapping or partially filled bands, allowing conduction at all temperatures. Insulators have large band gaps over 6eV, preventing electrons from being excited to the conduction band. Semiconductors have small band gaps around 1eV and conduct at higher temperatures as electrons are excited across the gap.

Engineering physics 8(semiconductors)
This document discusses semiconductors and is presented by Mr. Gouri Kumar Sahu, a senior lecturer in physics. It covers different types of semiconductors including elemental, compound, ternary and quaternary semiconductors. Semiconductors are classified as either pure/intrinsic or doped/extrinsic. Pure semiconductors have a small number of electrons that participate in conduction due to thermal energy. This leaves behind holes which act as positively charged carriers. Examples given are silicon and germanium.
Engineering physics 4(Thermal conductivity)
This document contains lecture notes from Mr. Gouri Kumar Sahu on Engineering Physics. It covers session 5 which includes topics on thermal conductivity, the expression for thermal conductivity, and the Wiedemann-Franz law. Key points include the definition of thermal conductivity as the ratio of heat flow to temperature gradient, the derivation of an expression for thermal conductivity based on free electron movement in metals, and the Wiedemann-Franz law relating thermal conductivity to electrical conductivity.
Engineering physics 9(doped or extrindic semiconductors)
This document discusses n-type semiconductors. It explains that n-type semiconductors are created by doping semiconductors like silicon with donor atoms from group 5 of the periodic table. These donor atoms contribute an extra electron that is not tightly bound and can move freely, becoming the majority charge carrier and allowing the semiconductor to conduct an electric current. The donor atoms create energy levels close to the conduction band, and at room temperature a sizable fraction of donor electrons are ionized and free to conduct electricity, making the material an n-type semiconductor with electrons as the majority carriers.

This document discusses engineering physics and was authored by Mr. Gouri Kumar Sahu, a senior lecturer in physics. It covers topics including the interpretation of relaxation time, the temperature dependence of electrical resistivity, and drawbacks of the classical free electron theory. The key points are that relaxation time in metals is on the order of 10-14 seconds due to electron-phonon interaction, resistivity is proportional to temperature according to theory but experimentally proportional to T, and the classical theory fails to explain several phenomena like ferromagnetism and superconductivity.
Engineering physics 1(Electrical conductivity)
This document discusses electrical conduction and related concepts taught by Mr. Gouri Kumar Sahu. It defines key terms like resistivity, conductivity, drift velocity, and classifications of conducting materials. Resistivity depends on a material's geometry while conductivity is independent and indicates how easily a material allows electron flow. Materials are classified as zero, low, or high resistivity based on their conductivity. Metals have very low resistivity and are used as conductors while materials like tungsten have high resistivity and are used for resistors and heating elements.
Engineering physics 6(Band theory of solids)
This document discusses the band theory of solids. It explains that in crystals, the energy levels of atoms are not well-defined as in isolated atoms, due to interactions between neighboring atoms. As silicon atoms are brought closer together from a distance, their energy levels first split and then merge into bands as the interatomic distance reaches the actual separation in the crystal. Specifically, the 4s, 4p, and 3d electron levels of silicon atoms combine to form the valence and conduction bands, separated by a forbidden energy gap.
Engineering physics 2(Electron Theory of metals)
This document discusses the electron theory of metals according to classical free electron theory. It describes the classical free electron theory proposed by Drude and Lorentz in 1900, which treats electrons in metals as a free electron gas obeying classical mechanics. The theory postulates that electrons move freely within the metal lattice and collide elastically with positive ions. When an electric field is applied, electrons drift through the metal. The document derives equations for drift velocity, current density, conductivity, resistivity, and mobility based on this classical free electron model. It also briefly mentions quantum free electron theory and band theory as later improvements over the classical model.
Engineering physics 5(Quantum free electron theory)
This document discusses quantum free electron theory, which was developed by Sommerfeld in 1928 to explain physical properties that classical free electron theory could not. Quantum theory permits only a fraction of electrons to gain energy, as opposed to classical theory. It introduces the density of states and Fermi-Dirac distribution function to determine the number of electrons in a given energy range. The effect of temperature on the distribution function is also examined, showing that only states close to the Fermi level are affected at higher temperatures. An expression is provided for electrical conductivity based on quantum concepts involving the Fermi velocity and mean free path.

Quantum free electron theory
This document discusses the key principles of quantum physics including:
(1) The wave-particle duality of microparticles like electrons described by de Broglie's equation.
(2) Energy quantization described by Planck's equation.
(3) Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.
It describes how Schrodinger's equation is used to model the wave-like behavior of electrons in solids. The energy and behavior of electrons is quantized based on solutions to Schrodinger's equation under different boundary conditions, such as electrons confined in a potential well or interacting with a potential barrier. Quantum theory was needed to fully explain properties of electrons in solids and failures of classical free electron theory
Quantum free electron_theory_001
1) Sommerfield's quantum free electron theory treats electrons inside a solid as particles confined in a box. This leads to quantized, discrete energy levels for the electrons described by the Schrodinger equation.
2) The highest filled energy level at 0K is called the Fermi level, and its energy is the Fermi energy. In 3D, the Fermi energy and wave vector depend on the electron density.
3) The density of states and Fermi-Dirac distribution describe the probability of electrons occupying different energy levels at different temperatures. The average electron energy is calculated based on these concepts.

Physics is related to other sciences through concepts like:
- Mathematics studies physical variables that led to calculus.
- Chemistry uses concepts like X-rays and radioactivity from Physics.
- Astronomy uses telescopes and discoveries enabled by Physics.
- Biology applies concepts like pressure measurements and imaging from Physics.
- Meteorology uses discoveries about pressure changes from Physics.
The four fundamental forces that govern all phenomena are the gravitational, electromagnetic, strong nuclear, and weak nuclear forces. Conservation laws state that certain physical quantities like energy, mass, linear momentum, and angular momentum remain constant over time in closed systems.

Atomic structure
This document provides an overview of the Bohr atomic model and its limitations. It discusses:
- Bohr proposed his atomic model in 1913 to explain stable electron orbits, requiring electrons to move in fixed circular paths (orbits) at discrete energy levels.
- The model's main postulates include electrons revolving in fixed orbits with discrete energies and angular momenta that are whole number multiples of a fundamental constant.
- However, the Bohr model fails to explain phenomena like the Zeeman effect and contradicted the uncertainty principle. It also could not explain spectra of multi-electron atoms or molecular bonding.
- De Broglie introduced the concept of matter waves, relating the wavelength of a particle to
B.sc(microbiology and biotechnology and biochemistry) ii inorganic chemistry ...
The document discusses several periodic trends:
1. Atomic radius generally increases moving down a group and decreases moving across a period, due to shielding and nuclear charge effects.
2. Ionization energy increases moving across a period as the effective nuclear charge increases, and decreases moving down a group as the distance from the nucleus increases.
3. Electronegativity increases moving across a period as it is easier to gain than lose electrons, and decreases moving down a group with increased atomic radius.
Faraday
Faraday conducted experiments on electromagnetic induction in 1831 by wrapping wires around a cardboard tube and connecting them to a galvanometer. He inserted a magnet inside the tube and moved it at varying speeds, observing current readings. He found that the faster the magnet moved, the more current was generated, and more coils around the tube produced more current. This established that changing the magnetic flux induces electron movement in the wire, with the rate of change affecting current strength.
Nuclear Power
This document discusses nuclear energy and radioactivity. It explains that atoms are held together by strong and electromagnetic forces, and that most elements are stable when they have equal numbers of protons and neutrons. However, additional neutrons can make atoms unstable and radioactive. Radioactive atoms undergo decay, emitting particles or rays and transforming into lighter elements. Nuclear fission is the splitting of heavy nuclei like uranium-235 by neutrons, releasing energy. This energy can be harnessed in nuclear reactors to generate electricity through heating water to create steam. Nuclear fusion also releases energy as hydrogen fuses to form helium in stars like the Sun.
SOMMERFELD MODEL Maya yadav ppt
The document discusses Sommerfeld's free electron model of metallic conduction. It explains that in this model, each free electron inside a metal experiences both an attractive electrostatic force from the positive ions and a repulsive force from other electrons. The model also assumes the positive ion lattice produces a uniform attractive potential field for electrons. The potential field must be periodic to match the crystal structure of the solid metal. The model provides explanations for electrical conductivity, heat capacity, and thermal conductivity of metals but fails to account for differences between conductor and insulator behaviors.
Quantum electrodynamics(qed)
Quantum electrodynamics (QED) describes the interaction between matter and light. It was the first theory to show the relationship between quantum mechanics and special relativity. QED was developed in the 1920s-1970s through the work of scientists like Dirac, Fermi, Feynman, Politzer, Coleman, Gross, and Wilczek. Feynman diagrams provide a visual representation of interactions like photons being emitted or absorbed by electrons. QED explains phenomena like annihilation and pair production and is the basis for other theories like quantum chromodynamics.
Trends of periodic atomic properties
1) Atomic radius decreases across a period as atomic number increases, leading to higher effective nuclear charge and stronger attraction of the nucleus. Atomic radius increases down a group as shielding electrons increase.
2) Ionization energy increases across a period as effective nuclear charge increases, making it harder to remove electrons. Ionization energy decreases down a group as shielding increases and atomic radius gets larger.
3) Electronegativity increases across a period for the same reasons as ionization energy, and decreases down a group as shielding increases and attraction decreases.
Einstein
Einstein was famous for his theories of relativity and equations relating matter, energy, light, and gravity. He proposed that the speed of light is constant and that gravity warps the fabric of spacetime rather than being an ordinary force. His most famous equation was E=mc2, relating energy and mass. He advocated for Zionism and fled Germany due to fears that the atomic bomb would be misused.
DEPENDENCE OF HIGH TEMPERATURE ON STRENGTH OF MAGNET
The document is a student's certificate, acknowledgements, index, and report on a school science project investigating the dependence of magnetic strength on high temperature. The project involved heating a magnet in an oven and measuring the weight of paperclips attracted at different temperatures. The results showed that magnetic strength initially increased as temperature decreased but then decreased at very low temperatures, as extreme temperatures can destabilize the balance between temperature and magnetic domains in magnetic materials.
Grand unified theory
The document discusses the history and development of theories attempting to unify the fundamental forces. It describes how electromagnetism was unified and the development of the electroweak theory. Efforts were made to include the strong nuclear force through grand unified theories, but requiring extremely high energies. String theory is now the leading approach to achieve a theory of everything by unifying gravity with other forces. Further experiments are still needed to fully test theories and achieve unification.

Quantum Numbers
The document discusses quantum numbers and their role in describing quantum states of electrons in atoms. It provides details on the principal quantum number n, the azimuthal quantum number l, the magnetic quantum number m, and the spin quantum number s. It also discusses the scientists who contributed to the development of these concepts, including Otto Stern, Walther Gerlach, and their Stern-Gerlach experiment demonstrating spin, as well as Wolfgang Pauli and his formulation of the Pauli exclusion principle.
Trends in the periodic table
Specifically designed for Leaving Cert Chemistry students. A simplified explanation of all the trends in the periodic Table. It includes details such as atomic radius, electronegativity and ionisation energy
Fermi dirac basic part 1
1. The document discusses the Fermi-Dirac distribution function, which describes the occupancy of energy levels by electrons in a solid.
2. The probability that an energy level E is filled by an electron is given by the Fermi-Dirac distribution function f(E) = 1/(1+e^(E-EF)/kT), where EF is the Fermi level energy.
3. The derivation of the Fermi-Dirac distribution function maximizes the logarithm of the multiplicity function, or number of configurations that electrons can occupy energy states, to find the occupancy probability that corresponds to thermal equilibrium.
Periodic trends
This document defines and discusses several periodic properties including atomic and ionic radii, ionization energy, electron affinity, and electronegativity. It states that atomic radii decrease across a period and increase down a group due to the increasing nuclear charge and electron cloud size. Ionization energies increase across a period as it is harder to remove electrons that are closer to the nucleus, and decrease down a group as the electrons are farther away. Electron affinity and electronegativity generally increase across periods and decrease down groups due to the effective nuclear charge and electron distance from the nucleus. Valence electrons are the outermost electrons involved in bonding, with atoms seeking to obtain a full outer shell of 8 electrons.

Physics of LEDs
This document describes the physics of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). It explains that LEDs are semiconductors made of doped n-type and p-type materials that emit light when electrically biased. When voltage is applied in the forward direction, electrons flow across the junction between the materials, recombining with holes and releasing photons. This causes the LED to emit light.

Semiconductors can be made intrinsic, with low conductivity, or extrinsic by doping with impurities to increase conductivity. Extrinsic semiconductors are classified as n-type or p-type depending on whether they are doped with elements that create extra electrons or holes, respectively, which become the majority carriers.

Semiconductors
Introduction
Semiconductor is a solid substance that has conductivity between that of an insulator and that of most metals, either due to the addition of an impurity or because of temperature effects. Devices made of semiconductors, notably silicon, are essential components of most electronic circuits.
Examples: Silicon, Germanium, Carbon
Intrinsic & Extrinsic Semiconductor
Semiconductors are mainly classified into two categories: Intrinsic and Extrinsic. An intrinsic semiconductor material is chemically very pure and possesses poor conductivity. It has equal numbers of negative carriers (electrons) and positive carriers (holes). Where as an extrinsic semiconductor is an improved intrinsic semiconductor with a small amount of impurities added.
The Doping of Semiconductors
The addition of a small percentage of foreign atoms in the regular crystal lattice of silicon or germanium produces dramatic changes in their electrical properties, producing n-type and p-type semiconductors.
Pentavalent impurities
Impurity atoms with 5 valence electrons produce n-type semiconductors by contributing extra electrons.
Trivalent impurities
Impurity atoms with 3 valence electrons produce p-type semiconductors by producing a "hole" or electron deficiency.
N-Type Semiconductor
The addition of pentavalent impurities such as antimony, arsenic or phosphorous contributes free electrons, greatly increasing the conductivity of the intrinsic semiconductor. Phosphorous may be added by diffusion of phosphine gas (PH3).
P-Type Semiconductor
The addition of trivalent impurities such as boron, aluminum or gallium to an intrinsic semiconductor creates deficiencies of valence electrons,called "holes". It is typical to use B2H6 diborane gas to diffuse boron into the silicon material.
Diodes
A device that blocks current in one direction while letting current flow in another direction is called a diode. Diodes can be used in a number of ways. For example, a device that uses batteries often contains a diode that protects the device if you insert the batteries backward. The diode simply blocks any current from leaving the battery if it is reversed -- this protects the sensitive electronics in the device.

Fluorescence
Fluorescence spectroscopy is based on the principle of fluorescence emission that occurs when a molecule absorbs light and is excited to a higher electronic state. The excited molecule then relaxes to the ground state via vibrational relaxation and emission of a photon. The emitted light has a longer wavelength than the absorbed light due to energy losses in vibrational relaxation, following Stokes' rule. Fluorescence spectroscopy can provide information about molecular structure and interactions through analysis of fluorescence emission spectra.

Topic energy band gap material science ppt
Energy bands consisting of a large number of closely spaced energy levels exist in crystalline materials. The bands can be thought of as the collection of the individual energy levels of electrons surrounding each atom. The wavefunctions of the individual electrons, however, overlap with those of electrons confined to neighboring atoms. The Pauli exclusion principle does not allow the electron energy levels to be the same so that one obtains a set of closely spaced energy levels, forming an energy band. The energy band model is crucial to any detailed treatment of semiconductor devices. It provides the framework needed to understand the concept of an energy bandgap and that of conduction in an almost filled band as described by the empty states.

Design of Tesla coil by abinash
A Tesla coil is a two stage transformer which high voltage, high frequency, power generator, primarily built for conducting experiments and to observe phenomenon associated with alternating electricity.
Design of Tesla coil - Report
A Tesla coil is an electrical resonant transformer circuit invented by Nikola Tesla around 1891. It is used to produce high-voltage, low-current, high frequency alternating-current electricity. Tesla experimented with a number of different configurations consisting of two, or sometimes three, coupled resonant electric circuits.
Tesla used these coils to conduct innovative experiments in electrical lighting, phosphorescence, X-ray generation, frequency alternating phenomena, electrotherapy, and the transmission of electrical energy without wires. Tesla coil circuits were used commercially in spark gap radio transmitters for wireless telegraphy until the 1920s, and in medical equipment such as electrotherapy and violet ray devices. Today their main use is for entertainment and educational displays, although small coils are still used today as leak detectors for high vacuum systems.

A high-Speed Communication System is based on the Design of a Bi-NoC Router, ...
The Network on Chip (NoC) has emerged as an effective
solution for intercommunication infrastructure within System on
Chip (SoC) designs, overcoming the limitations of traditional
methods that face significant bottlenecks. However, the complexity
of NoC design presents numerous challenges related to
performance metrics such as scalability, latency, power
consumption, and signal integrity. This project addresses the
issues within the router's memory unit and proposes an enhanced
memory structure. To achieve efficient data transfer, FIFO buffers
are implemented in distributed RAM and virtual channels for
FPGA-based NoC. The project introduces advanced FIFO-based
memory units within the NoC router, assessing their performance
in a Bi-directional NoC (Bi-NoC) configuration. The primary
objective is to reduce the router's workload while enhancing the
FIFO internal structure. To further improve data transfer speed,
a Bi-NoC with a self-configurable intercommunication channel is
suggested. Simulation and synthesis results demonstrate
guaranteed throughput, predictable latency, and equitable
network access, showing significant improvement over previous
designs

SESSION-8 8.1 Conductors, Insulators and Semiconductors 8.1 Conductors, Insulators and Semiconductors Solids conduct only when empty states with higher energies exist close to the initial states of the electrons. Thus conduction takes place only in partially occupied bands or the energy gap is small. The properties of a solid is determined by the following factor: 1. The occupation state of the topmost band. 2. The forbidden energy gap 3. The density of states in the top most band 4. The presence of impurities in the crystal

SESSION-8 8.1 Conductors, Insulators and Semiconductors 8.1 Conductors, Insulators and Semiconductors As no energy is required to make the electron move from valence to conduction band therefore they conducts at low temperature
- 6. 6 ENGINEERING PHYSICS Mr. Gouri Kumar Sahu Sr. Lecturer in Physics. 6 ENGINEERING PHYSICS Mr. Gouri Kumar Sahu Sr. Lecturer in Physics. SESSION-8 INSULATORS INSULATORS: These are the substances which don’t conduct. This phenomenon can be explained on the basis of energy band theory. The valence band and the conduction band in a crystal are separated by an energy difference of the order of 6eV or more. Such a large amount of energy cannot be supplied using thermal means therefore it is not possible to move an electron from valence to the conduction band. It is incorrect to say that electrons in an insulator are not free to move around. In fact, they do. However, as there are as many electrons as there are states, the electrons only trade places resulting in no net movement of charges
- 7. 7 ENGINEERING PHYSICS Mr. Gouri Kumar Sahu Sr. Lecturer in Physics. 7 ENGINEERING PHYSICS Mr. Gouri Kumar Sahu Sr. Lecturer in Physics. SESSION-8 SEMICONDUCTORS SEMICONDUCTORS: These are the substances, which are insulators at low temperature, and a start conducting as the temperature is increased. At low temperatures the valence band of the semiconductors is filled whereas the conduction band is empty. The energy difference between the valence band and the conduction band is of the order of 1eV. This energy can be supplied using thermal means. If the temperature of the semiconductor is increased the electron jumps from valence to the conduction band resulting in electrons being present in the conduction band and holes in the valence band. Thus current begins to flow in semiconductor.
