How big is the band gap? A heated discussion

April 26, 2022 By dherres Leave a Comment

There’s a trick with a soldering iron can be used to determine whether an unidentified semiconductor is n-type or p-type. In essence, it determines whether the majority carriers are holes (p-type) or electrons (n-type). Just as heat makes a gas expand (PV=nRT), the hot tip of a soldering iron makes carriers expand away from the […]

Probing Semiconductor Crystals with a Sphere of Light

June 10, 2019 By TOHOKU UNIVERSITY

Tohoku University researchers have developed a technique using a hollow sphere to measure the electronic and optical properties of large semiconducting crystals. The approach, published in the journal Applied Physics Express, improves on current photoluminescence spectroscopy techniques and could lead to energy savings for mass producers, and thus consumers, of power devices. Semiconducting crystals are used […]

Organic Electronics: A New Semiconductor in the Carbon-Nitride Family

June 7, 2019 By Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin für Materialien und Energie

Some organic materials might be able to be utilised similarly to silicon semiconductors in optoelectronics. Whether in solar cells, light-emitting diodes, or in transistors – what is important is the band gap, i.e. the difference in energy level between electrons in the valence band (bound state) and the conduction band (mobile state). Charge carriers can […]

UV Light May Illuminate Improvements for Next Generation Electronic Devices

June 5, 2019 By Nagoya Institute of Technology

By adding one more layer of atoms to already infinitesimally small semiconductors, a next-level generation of electrical devices becomes possible. This work to build better and faster electronics is well underway, but little was known about how to test the ingredients of these devices to ensure performance. Now, researchers from the Nagoya Institute of Technology […]
