For the following questions please use more detail than the band theory explanation.
1a) What atomic energy levels combine to form the valence band?? Please specify the specific energy levels; a diagram will help!
1b) What atomic energy level combine to form the conduction band?? Please specify the specific energy levels and a diagram!!
1c) If there is a relatively low concentration of an ionic impurity in an insulator how does its electronic structure appear in the band structure of the insulator (please include a diagram in your answer).
