Semiconductor BandGap
1.Energy difference (in electron volts)
between the top of the valence band
and the bottom of the
conduction band.
2. Type of Bandgap
• Direct Bandgap Semiconductor.
• Indirect Bandgap Semiconductor.

Direct and Indirect BandGap Semiconductor
1. Electrons falling from conduction band to an
Valence Band gives of lights(photon)
This process is called “ Recombination”.
2. Examples GaAs (Gallium Arsenide)
GaN (Gallium Nitride).
3. Examples light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and
laser diodes

Metals, Semiconductors and Insulators
1. In Insulator - the Energy BandGap
(Eg ) is wider between Conduction
Band and Valence Band.
Diamond -- Eg = 5eV
2. If electric field applied, the electrons
in Valence Band (VB) cannot reach
Conduction Band.

Energy Diagram of Metals
1. In Metals, valence band and
conduction band overlap each
other. Therefore, there is no
forbidden gap in a conductor or
partially filled conduction band
2. A small amount of applied external
energy provides enough energy for
the valence band electrons to move
in to conduction band.

Energy Diagram of Semiconductor
1. In Semiconductor - the Energy
BandGap (Eg ) is smaller between
Conduction Band and Valence
Band than in insulators.
Si -- Eg = 1.1eV
2. At 0K, Semiconductor behave as
an Insulator.
3. At T> 0K, Semiconductor behave
as an Metal

Energy Diagram of Semiconductor
1. A small fraction of the electrons is
thermally excited into the
conduction band. These electrons
carry current just as in metals.
2. The smaller the gap the more
electrons in conduction band at a
given temperature.
3. Resistivity decreases with
temperature due to higher
concentration of electrons in
conduction band

The Valence Band in the Semiconductor
Valence Band in Semiconductor
• The valence band of with all
states filled (electrons) .
• The electron with wave vector kj
is matched with opposite wave
vector –kj .
• There is no net current in band
unless an electron is removed.
