Draw band structure diagrams for the following, highlighting on
each diagram the valence band, conduction band and the band
gap.
(a) Au,
(b) SiO2
(c) intrinsic Ge
(d) p-type Ge
(e) n-type Ge
On each of the band diagrams also indicate the probable location
of the Fermi level for (c), (d) and (e) at a temperature of 0
K.
Show that electrons in states near the conduction band minimum
behave as free electrons with an 'effective mass' m. (Hint: Expand
the dispersion relation E(k) locally into a Taylor series)
(a) Find the concentration of electrons and holes in a sample of
germanium that has a concentration of donor atoms equal to 1015
cm?3. Is the semiconductor n-type or p-type? (b) Repeat part (a)
for silicon.
2.5 Use the de Broglie relation λ=h/p to find the wavelength of
electrons with kinetic energy equal to 550 eV. Indicate if
relativistic or classical calculations are required.
2.3 Determine the energy of an electron and a photon if each has
momentum equal to 1.071 x 10-21 kgm/s. Provide answer with 4
significant figures.ual to 550 eV. Indicate if relativistic or
classical calculations are required.
Which electrons experience a greater effective nuclear charge,
the valence electrons in beryllium, or the valence electrons in
nitrogen? Which electrons experience a greater effective nuclear
charge, the valence electrons in beryllium, or the valence
electrons in nitrogen?
the valence electrons in beryllium
the valence electrons in nitrogen
More information is needed before the correct answer can be
determined.
To
find the oxidation number for a molecule, you use the equation (#
of valence electrons) - (# of credited electrons)
Ex- C2O
Valence electrons- 4
Credited electrons-3
4-3= 1
+I oxidation
What is a “credited” electron and how do you find them?
1. First you need to find the number of valence electrons in
CH3Cl. For counting purposes with Lewis structures, the number of
valence electrons in an atom of a main group element is equal to
the last digit in the group number of that element in the Periodic
Table. C is in Group ____________ H is in Group ____________ Cl is
in Group ____________ In NH2Cl there is a total of ____________
valence electrons.2. The model consists of balls and...
