What is the essential characteristic for an element to serve as a donor impurity in a semiconductor such as Si or Ge? For it to serve as an acceptor impurity? Explain.
exist is for valence electrons to "leap" into the conduction band with the
Enoiteou
Question 5
pplication of sufficient energy, legving a hole, or vacancy, behind in the
valence band:
Valence electron leaping
into conduction band
Conduction band
valence band
With sufficient thermal energy, these electron-hole pairs will form spontaneously.
Af room temperature, however, this activity is slight.
we may greatly enhance charge carrier formation by adding specific impurities
to the semiconducting material. The energy states of atoms having different
electron configurations do not precisely "blend" with the electron bands of the
parent semiconductor crystal, causing additional energy levels to form.
Some types of impurities will cause extra donor electrons to lurk just beneath the
main conduction band of the crystal. These types of impurities are called
pentavalent, because they have 5 valence electrons per atom rather than 4 as
the parent substance typically possesses:
