Write any two distinguishing features between conductors, semiconductors and insulators on the basis of energy band diagrams.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To distinguish between conductors, semiconductors, and insulators based on energy band diagrams, we can summarize the features as follows: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Conductors:** - **Energy Band Diagram:** In conductors, the conduction band and valence band overlap or are partially filled. - **Forbidden Energy Gap:** There is no forbidden energy gap (Eg = 0 eV), allowing electrons to flow freely, which results in high electrical conductivity. ...
