The Quantum Theory of Solids Electrical Conduction in Solids Silicon at T = 0K All valence electrons are in the valence band

The Quantum Theory of Solids Electrical Conduction in Solids Silicon at T > 0K Some electrons have moved into the conduction band

The Quantum Theory of Solids Effective Mass but, difficult to know Fint, therefore where m* takes into account internal forces Analogy a force acting on ball in air vs. ball in oil Given concept of m*, we can determine acceleration in normal way F= -eE = m*a, therefore a = -eE/m*

The Quantum Theory of Solids Concept of a Hole Current flow may be thought of as the movement of valence electrons elevated to the conduction band Alternatively, can think of this process as the flow of (positively-charged) holes
