Class 12 Semiconductors: We cannot imagine our life without computers today. But what makes a computer tick? What's making this technology grow at such an exponential rate? It's all due to semiconductors. As unbelievable as that might sound, altering the properties of semiconductors allows us to build these computers. In this topic, we will explore the world of semiconductors. It's a journey from what semiconductors are all the way to creating building blocks of these computers.

I have a tough question. If a battery is applied, wouldn't the valence electrons (at the very end of the semiconductive material) find easy to get into the conduction band of the metal wires and finally nearby electrons would jump into those left behind holes, creating like an avalanche? That is, the valence shells of the very end of the semiconductive material would be actually "glued" to the positive metal wire(and to their valence shells). Metal wires have their conduction and valence band overlapped. So electrons would say: "Ooh, look, we don't need a hole to fill in, we can directly jump into the metal wire." The electrons from nearby atoms would say: "Hey! Holes got created! Let's jump in!", and so on. This would create an avalanche, right? I think that more easy to say is this: how is it possible that valence electrons, when a voltage is applied, they jump from hole to hole towards the positive terminal of the battery, so that they finally jump into the metal wire? When they reach the final atom of the semiconductor, they just jump into that metal wire? If this is what happens, then why the avalanche (which I tried :)) to explain above) does not happen? Thank you!

@walletinsiders 5 лет назад

Really not an expert here but I think you're thinking of holes as a missing space in a sea and so if there are enough holes that this "sea" must cave in thus creating an avalanche. It's not like that though when you think about it as simply a band which is occupied by electrons. 2 per energy level but it doesn't mean to say it can't have one or no electrons on one energy level. And so nothing will "cave in" no matter how there holes or electrons move or how many vacancies there are. I think that more holes or electrons just mean more conduction. (Ps. I can't really determine what ur question is but this is the answer for my interpretation of what you are asking).

@mahimathresiasujoy563 2 года назад

Avalanche does happens in such cases but..here is the thing it happens in a lightly doped junction…which I think u should watch diode 😅…then the ans to your question will be solved🧞‍♀️

@nitink9879 4 года назад

Please clear my doubt. One cannot say the current is due to BOTH electrons and holes. As a convention we can consider only holes instead of electrons. But if done so we can consider only the movement of holes accounting for current. That is we can say the current is completely and only due to electrons or we can say the current is completely and only due to holes. But we cannot say the current is due to both holes and electrons.

@KhanAcademyIndiaEnglish 4 года назад

I had a similar confusion. So let me clarify. When we say hole current, it's literally the electrons in the valence band (the ones that are participating in covalent bonds and are not 'free'), jumping from one hole to another, in the opposite direction of electric field. However, there are free electrons in conduction band as well. These electrons also move in the opposite direction of the field. This is what we call 'electron current'. So you see, there is indeed two set of electrons constituting the total current. It's just that, for the electrons jumping from one hole to another, it's easier to keep track of holes. So we assume the holes to be moving. So there you have it, you indeed get two sets of current and total current would be the sum of them. Feel free to ask more questions

@nitink9879 4 года назад

@@KhanAcademyIndiaEnglish Now I understand. The current in valence band is called hole current in which it is easier to keep track of holes rather than electrons. Thank you for clearing my doubt sir.

@geojose5045 3 года назад

@@nitink9879 but how can there be current in the valence band. Current can only be generated in the conduct band right?

@nitink9879 3 года назад

@@geojose5045 No . The current flows through both valence and conduction band.

@doodoofarter105 6 лет назад

Why is it that semiconductors do this? The thing that some of the electrons will break out and create holes. Why cant conductors or insulators do this? Follow up: Why is it that when Silicon is at 300 K , only some of the electrons manage to jump to the higher energy state? Can't all of them do that since they are all receiving the energy? (commented on the khan academy video as well ,not sure if replying) Thanks

@mahimathresiasujoy563 2 года назад

Well this is my answer 😊 Conductors have extra electrons…aka free electrons so no holes if electrons move around While insulators mostly don’t have any free electrons ..I.e they attain octet(mostly through covalent 😅 ig) so no electrons to move around On the other hand semiconductors which fall under the 2 have no sufficient electrons and when under external electric field these electrons start to move around ( which is true for any material)so as they move they leave vacant spaces …which is called holes… Now the 2nd question …for semiconductors as temperature increases conductivity increases…so at 300k which is room temperature electrons in Si and any semiconductors experience jump to higher energy state…as for why few…think this way…when energy is provided only a the lucky ones gets enough energy to excite 😅…therefore only a few mange to excite…in case of conductors their valence bands overlaps conductance band therefore all electrons are lucky🙃 however for semiconductors and insulators electrons have to put in an extra effort to move to higher state which only the lucky ones who get sufficient energy does so…so not all electrons are lucky Hope I answered your question though 3 years later😂😅

@Surya-uv3bz Год назад

in this the valence band electrons are of 3s or 3p, there is some vacancy in case of 3p

@CGuevara00 2 года назад

¡Thank you!

@pahalshah4375 Год назад

sir pls clear my doubt I can't understand why you are saying that the valence band is 'completely filled' in semiconductors whereas it's not so in conductor (with reference to your last video), because we know that Si has only 4 electrons in valence shell instead of 8, so even if they form a band, each atom will still be short of 4 electrons, then in what sense do you mean 'completely filled'?

@23vijayragav82 Год назад

Si is 4 electrons bonds with another si 4 electrons around it.. like a mutual understanding..

@tony8210300 4 года назад

2:50 You talked about the electron in the edge is not shown. But as a bulk material, it definitely has the edge, what is the actual electron configuration in the edge, leaving a vacancy over there?

@tony8210300 3 года назад

I agree your point, however, is it possible to create a environment that keep a perfect silicon that without any impurity. In this situation, what does the edge looks like?
