Solid State Electronics-1

1. Conductors are materials that contain movable charged particles called electrons that allow electric current to flow through them easily. Common conductors are metals like copper and aluminum. 2. Semiconductors have electrical conductivity between that of conductors and insulators. Examples include silicon and germanium. Their conductivity can be modified by "doping" with small impurities. 3. In intrinsic semiconductors, conductivity increases with temperature as electrons gain enough energy to jump from the valence to conduction band. Doping with donor or acceptor impurities creates an excess of charge carriers and allows control of the semiconductor's conductivity type.
