The Physics of Electronic Devices and Circuits

Semiconductors have been proving to be a great revolution in our lives. Video games, electronic devices all use Semiconductors. It is the basis of integrated circuits and microprocessors. Three types of materials according to their distinguishing materials include conductors, semiconductors and insulators. Conductors and insulators include copper and rubber. Semiconductors include carbon, silicon, germanium, selenium, gallium arsenide and lead sulphide.

There is a difference in the number of electrons present in conductors, semiconductors and insulators. Electron in an atom is restrained to a specific energy ...
