Animation Demonstration No. 2

Interaction of Light with Semiconductors Normally a semiconductor material has only a few thermally excited free electrons in conduction band at room temperature Conduction Band Valance Band Bandgap

Interaction of Light with Semiconductors Absorption of a photon with energy larger than or equal to the Energy Bandgap makes bound electrons jump into conduction band and produce an electron – hole pair. Conduction Band Valance Band electron – hole pair (EHP)

Interaction of Light with Semiconductors The number of carriers – electrons in conduction band and holes in valance band thus keep on increasing with larger amounts of incident light flux Conduction Band Valance Band

Interaction of Light with Semiconductors The number of carriers – electrons in conduction band and holes in valance band thus keep on increasing with larger amounts of incident light flux Conduction Band Valance Band
