GaP in an indirect band gap material

View page

becoz Si and Ge are indirect bandgap semiconductors. for lasing action direct bandgap semiconductors are required of the type In Ga As P

View page

Because semiconductors such as silicon are indirect bandgap semiconductors, so some of the light energy is wasted as lattice vibrations (phonons).

bandgap has an importance role for conduction.if bandgap is max,the conduction of electron is min. and vice-versa.hence we can say that the bandgap desides the conductivity of any material(may be metal or nonmetal)

we all know that electrons,photons, phonons can excite an electron from valence band to conduction band...i think the main difference between electronic bandgap and optical bandgap is that in electonic its the energy required for an electron to move from the valence band to the conduction band.but in optical bandgap photons(packet of energy in the form of light waves) are assisting the electrons to move from valence band to conduction band.

The difference between optical and electronic bandgap is more complexe actually. The optical bandgap is the one that can be measured using optical techniques (based on transmission and reflection, i.e. Tauc plot). However, this measurement does not take into account all traps you might have within the bandgap that can modify the energy required to move one charge carrier from the conduction band ans the conduction band. The electronic band gap (which is the one of interest in fine, in an integrated device) is measured under operation. Thus, for many devices (lasers, solar cells...etc.) the electronic bandgap (energy required to get the device working) can defer from the optical bandgap.
