Conductors, Semiconductors and Insulators
Bonding forces between atoms:
Atoms bond themselves  what happens to outer-shell electrons

1) Metallic bonding  easily detached valence electrons


electron gas drifting about in space
voltage  electrons are easily moved
create current flow
Na, Cu, Fe, Al, Au

2) Covalent bonding  outer shell – 4 electrons, 4 holes


valence shell electrons fill valence holes of
4 adjacent atoms
no holes, no electrons drifting about
voltage  weakly attached electrons break away
create current flow
Si, Ge, GaAs, InP
Conductors, Semiconductors and Insulators
Bonding forces between atoms:
3) Ionic bonding 
insulating materials 
rubber, glass, ceramic, wood
i) covalent bonding =
strongly attached valence shell electrons
ii) ionized atoms =
free outer-shell electrons are
accepted by nearby atoms
no free electrons to create current

Metallic bond  Conductors


Covalent bond  Semiconductors
Ionic bond  Insulators
Conductors, Semiconductors and Insulators
Energy bands in different materials:
1) Insulators (1014 Ω):
Empty conduction band
Filled valence band
Wide forbidden gap

2) Semiconductors (10 Ω):


narrower forbidden gap
At absolute zero 
semiconductor = insulator
At room temperature or
Applied voltage 
electron movement in conduction band and
hole transfer in valence band

3) Conductors (10-6 Ω):


no forbidden gap
valence and conduction energy bands overlap
n-Type and p-Type Semiconductors
Doping:
Pure semiconductor = intrinsic material [Si, Ge, GaAs, InP]
Intrinsic material + Impurity atoms 
improve conductivity
doping = extrinsic material
donor doping = generates free conduction band electrons
acceptor doping = generates valence band holes

n-type material:
Semiconductor atoms = 4 electrons + 4 holes
Impurity atoms = 5 electrons + 3 holes = pentavalent atoms
P, As, Sb, Bi
Semiconductor atoms + Impurity atoms = additional free electrons donated
n-type material
electrically neutral
Conduction = electron motion
Majority charge carriers = electrons
Minority charge carriers = holes
n-Type and p-Type Semiconductors
p-type material:
Semiconductor atoms = 4 electrons + 4 holes
Impurity atoms = 3 electrons + 5 holes = trivalent atoms
B, Al, Ga
Semiconductor atoms + Impurity atoms = additional hole to accept electron
p-type material
electrically neutral
Conduction = hole transfer
Majority charge carriers = holes
Minority charge carriers = electrons

Electron-hole pair generation  energy creates pair of electron and hole


Electron-hole pair recombination  electron falls into hole
