Difference between tunnel diode and PN junction diode?
there is difference between doping levels.In normal PN junction diode we add 1 impurity for 108 atoms where as in tunnel diode we add 1 impurity for 103 atoms.there is a probability that electrons may penetrate through barrier.So will not disappear in tunnel diode we get maximum current before barrier disappear where as we get maximum current after break down(there is no barrier) this effect lies within a certain voltage limit of 0.4V. When we consider the energy band structure in case of PN junction diode the fermi level lies inside the forbidden energy gap.In case of tunnel diode,the fermi level lies outside the forbidden energy band. In tunnel diode, there is a topic about negative resistance region where as we cannot discuss it in PN junction diode. ur friend, uma.
Why conduction band and valence band partially filled?
No. Conduction band is basically the unfilled energy levels into which electrons can be excited to provide conductivity.
What happens when electrons in conduction band loses its energy and falls to a hole in the valence band?
The energy leaves as either a photon or phonon.
What is the gap between valance band and conduction band in a semi conductor?
Conduction band - The unfilled energy levels into which electrons can be excited to provide conductivity.Valence band - The energy levels filled by electrons in their lowest energy states.
Do semiconductor material have a very high resistance at room temperature?
No. As temperature increases, resistance of semiconductors decrease. This is because semiconductors have a small energy gap between their valence band and conduction band (in the order of 1 eV). Electrons must exist in the conduction band in order for the material to conduct but electrons exist in the valence band naturally. The electrons gain thermal energy for surroundings and jumps the energy gap from valence band to conduction band and hence, the SC material more readily conducts. As temperature increases, electrons can gain more thermal energy, more electrons can enter the conduction band and hence, resistance decreases.
What is a difference between forbidden energy gap depletion region in semiconductor?
forbidden energy gap or energy gap or band gap or band or Eg is the gap between the top of the valance band and bottom of the conduction band. If we apply the energy equivalent to Eg then the electrons in valance band will jump to the conduction band. Ravinder kumar meena stpi n depletion region is the region in semiconductor where there is depletion of free charge carriers.Ravinder kumar meena stpi n
What is the forbidden energy gap?
The forbidden energy gap refers to the energy range within a material where electron states are not allowed to exist. This gap prevents electrons from moving freely and conducting electricity. Materials with larger forbidden energy gaps are typically insulators, while materials with smaller gaps or none are conductors or semiconductors.
What is forbidden energy?
The gap in energy that you are forbidden from visiting. It's a government conspiracy.
What type of energy transfer is the transfer of heat through matter by molecular activity?
Conduction is the type of energy transfer that occurs when heat is transferred through matter by molecular activity. In this process, the energy is passed from one molecule to the next through direct contact.
Is conduction related to kinetic energy?
Yes, conduction is related to kinetic energy. Conduction is the transfer of heat through a material due to the vibration and movement of its atoms and molecules, which is a form of kinetic energy. Increased kinetic energy tends to enhance the rate of heat conduction in a material.

Can energy be transferred by conduction even when no matter is present?
No, conduction requires the presence of matter for energy to be transferred. Energy transfer by conduction occurs through direct contact between particles in a material, so without matter, conduction cannot take place.
Is the movement of energy through direct contact called convetion or conduction?
conduction.
What is forbidden gap?
When atoms are brought close together, as in a solid, the electrons come under the influence of forces from other atoms, where the energy level merges into bands of energy levels. There are two distinct energy bands in which electrons could exist: the valence band and the conduction band . Separating these two bands is an energy gap , termed the forbidden gap, in which electrons cannot normally exist.Avinash SinghJr. YSR (ISCA)Mech. Eng.KIIT UnivesityBBSR
What is the transfer of energy by movement of particles?
Conduction is the transfer of energy by movement of particles in a material. This occurs when vibrating particles transfer energy to neighboring particles through direct contact. Heat is a common form of energy transferred through conduction.
How does conduction transfer energy?
By heat
Is energy flow conduction?
Yes
