The resistivity of the silver is at room temperature of (300 K), while that of silicon is about
(a) Show that this disparity follows, at least to a rough order of magnitude from the approximate 1 eV band gap in silicon.
(b) What would you expect for the room temperature resistivity of diamond, which has a band gap of about 5 eV.
Section 10.2 gives the energy and approximate proton separation of the molecule. What is the energy of the electron alone?
Question: - A semimetal (e.g., antimony, bismuth) is a material in which electrons would fill states to the top of a band the valence band--except for the fact that the top of this band overlaps very slightly with the bottom of the next higher band. Explain why such a material, unlike the "real" metal copper, will have true positive charge carriers and equal numbers of negative ones, even at zero temperature.
Why does the small current flowing through a reverse biased diode depends much more strongly on temperature than on the applied (reverse) voltage?
Of , and , none has an electric dipole moment, but one does have a magnetic dipole moment, which one, and why?
