Solar cells are p-n junctions that absorb photons, giving electrons enough energy to enter the conduction band. Brush up on your conductors, semiconductors and insulators knowledge and ...

Semiconductors are the fundamental building blocks of almost all modern electronics, powering everything from smartphones and ...

Band theory of metals, conductors, semiconductors and insulators and n and p-type semiconductors. Redox reactions; conductance in electrolytic solutions, specific and molar conductivity variations ...

A team partially replaced lithium in a lithium antimonide compound with the metal scandium. This creates specific gaps, so-called vacancies, in the crystal lattice of the conductor material. These ...

Researchers at TUM and TUMint.Energy Research have taken a significant step towards improving solid-state batteries. They ...

Such a rich composition makes two‐dimensional materials have a rich electronic structure, such as metals, semi‐metals, insulators, and semiconductors with direct and indirect bandgap in the full ...
