Semiconductors

Science > Chemistry > Solid State > Semiconductors On the basis of electrical conductivity, substances can be classified into three types conductors, insulators, and semiconductors. In this article, we shall have a brief idea of semiconductors. Semiconductors are the substances whose conductivity lies between the conductors and insulators e.g. Germanium, Silicon, etc. They are covalent solids. […]

Science > Chemistry > Solid State > Electrical Properties of Solids In the last article, we have studied the dielectric properties of solids. In this article, we shall study the electrical properties of solids. Electrical Conductivity: The electrical conductivity of solids is due to the motion of electron or positive holes. The conductivity due to the motion […]
