  6. 12.6 Conduction in Terms of Band and Atomic Bonding Models Metallic character Excitation barrier is much smaller than heat (RT), noise or any background excitations. Practically anything excite electrons to the conduction band c12f05

  7. An intrinsic semiconductor has a band gap or barrier for the electrons to get into the conduction band This barrier need a photon excitation, an external bias potential Usually RT cannot excite the electron to the conduction band. For instance, a photon of light ~4eV c12f06 c12f06

  8. 12.7 Electron Mobility c12f07 Scattering Events Electric field drifts electrons in the opposite direction to the field b/c electrons are –ve The actual speed of electrons is much higher than the drift velocity Scattering is due to the strike with the nuclei When the actual velocity of the electrons is similar to the drift velocity, the system is in the ballistic regime In the ballistic regime there is practically no barrier for the electrons Examples: in vacuum tubes, ~in carbon nanotubes (CNT), superconductors* J = sE c12f07

  9. II. SEMICONDUCTIVITY Conductivity of semiconducting materials is lower than from metals Sensitive to minute concentrations of impurities Intrinsic: pure material Extrinsic: doped with impurity atoms 12.10 Intrinsic Semiconduction Band structure Si (1.1 eV) Ge (0.7 eV) GaAs (IIIA-VA) InSb (IIIA-VA) CdS (IIB-VIA) ZnTe (IIB-VIA) We have electrons as carriers in metals and “electrons” and ‘holes’ as carriers in semiconductors
