The discussion centers on the impact of crystal defects on band diagrams, particularly in semiconductors. Participants explore how different concentrations of defects can influence electronic states and band structure.
There is no explicit consensus reached among participants, as the discussion includes varying levels of detail and understanding regarding the effects of crystal defects on band diagrams.
Some assumptions about the types of defects and their specific impacts on band diagrams remain unaddressed. The discussion does not resolve the complexity of how different defect types may interact with the band structure.
Readers interested in semiconductor physics, solid state physics, and the effects of material defects on electronic properties may find this discussion relevant.
Can you please give me a link so that i further learn about it.Useful nucleus said:For example, in a semiconductor, if there is a dilute concentration of defects, they would induce isolated defect electronic states in the gap of the semiconductors. If the concentration of the defects increases they may create a whole new band.
