Light Emitting Diode or LED, is a heavily doped p-n junction which under forward bias emits spontaneous radiation. The diode is put inside a transparent cover so that emitted light can come out. Working of LED: When the diode is forward biased, electrons are sent from n →p (where they are minority carriers) and holes … Read more
Those materials which acts as insulators at low temperature & behave as conductors at room temperature or at higher temperature, are known as semiconductor. Semiconductors could be: (i) Elemental semiconductors: Si and Ge (ii) Compound semiconductors: Examples are: • Inorganic: CdS, GaAs, CdSe, InP, etc. … Read more
