Devices that use semiconductors to produce electricity from solar energy are?
Photovoltaic cells
What are the advantage of semiconductor over conductor?
semiconductors are the conducors they are partially conduct electricity. And we can increase therir conductivity by using various method . They are Intrinsic method and extrinsic method . Intrinsic method is heating the semiconducter . Extrinsic method is doping. By using this method the conductivity of semiconductors is rapidly increases. Then we use semiconductors are prefferd to conductors
Why do you use semiconductor why not conductors and insulators by changing their properties?
We use semiconductors instead of conductors and insulators by changing their properties because the properties of a semiconductor lies between that of a good insulator ant that of a good conductor. Any of the materials obtained depends on the level of doping.
Applications of ic 565 as frequency multiplier?
Integrated Circuits with a NE565 frequency can be used in all electronic devices. These semiconductors are lightweight, low cost, and compact making them useful in many modern appliances, phones, and computers.
What is type 1 and type 2 semiconductors?
Type 1 Semiconductors: The bandgap of one semiconductor is completely contained in the bandgap of the other one. In double heterostructure design carriers will be confined in the smaller bandgap material. this structure is used to form barrier/quantum well in Multi quantum well lasers and LEds Type II: like Type I The bandgap of the two materials overlap but the changes in the conduction and valence bands change sign. this type of materials do not use for light emiiting application as carriers can not be confined.
Devices which use semiconductors use current to operate than those which do not use semiconductors?
less
What are using semiconducter?
Computer use semiconductors all machine with microchips use semiconductors
Boron and antimony might be good elements to use as?
Semiconductors!!
Why do we mostly use indirect semiconductors?
The indirect band gap semiconductors like silicon and germanium are mostly used because they are elemental, plentiful, and easier to process than the direct band gap semiconductors which are alloys or compounds.
What is a good example of a non insulator?
There are conductors, semiconductors and insulators. Conductors and semiconductors could be considered noninsulators, so I would say copper but if you want to use semiconductors instead you can say something like doped gallium.
Why do you use semiconductors while the conductors are in use?
Semiconductors might sound somewhat 'inferior' in comparison to 'conductors', but they are - due to their unique properties - indispensable in modern electronics. Semiconductors, generally, make it easily possible to control the direction and flow of electric current which is the basis of most modern electronic device.
Devices that use semiconductors to produce electricity from solar energy are?
Photovoltaic cells
What are devices that use semiconductors to produce electricity from solar energy?
Photovoltaic cells
Why we can't use silicon and germanium in laser diode?
becoz Si and Ge are indirect bandgap semiconductors. for lasing action direct bandgap semiconductors are required of the type In Ga As P
Formula for watts per home?
If this question is about electrical home heating then use ten watts per square foot.
Is the word bedtime an indirect object?
It depends on how you use it, for example: "The bedroom is purple" The word bedroom is the subject. "He hit the bedroom" The word bedroom is the direct object. "We drink water in the bedroom" The word bedroom is the object of the preposition 'in'; 'in the bedroom.' is the indirect object of the verb.
What has the author Albert C W Saunders written?
Albert C. W. Saunders has written: 'Working with semiconductors' -- subject(s): Semiconductors, Transistor circuits '99 ways to use your oscilloscope' -- subject(s): Oscilloscopes
