Band Gap in Semiconductors<br />

• Metal<br />

• Band gap = zero<br />

• Conductor<br />

Energy<br />

conduction band<br />

valence band<br />

• Semiconductor<br />

• Small band gap<br />

• External influence such as applied<br />

voltage or photon of correct energy<br />

can promote electrons from valence<br />

to conduction band<br />
