Energy Bands.In isolated atom the valence electrons can exist only in one of the allowed orbitals each
of a sharply dened energy called energy levels !ut when two atoms are brought nearer toeach other" there are alterations in energy levels and they spread in the form of bands
#nergy bands are of following types
$%& Valence band
'he energy band formed by a series of energy levels containing valence electrons is(nown as valence band )t * K" the electrons lls the energy levels in valence band startingfrom lowest one
$i& 'his band is always fulll by electron$ii& 'his is the band of maximum energy
$iii& #lectrons are not capable of gaining energy from external electric eld
$iv& +o ,ow of current due to such electrons
$v& 'he highest energy level which can be occupied by an electron in valence band at *Kis called fermi level
$& Conduction band
'he higher energy level band is called the conduction band
$i& It is also called empty band of minimum energy
$ii& 'his band is partially lled by the electrons
$iii& In this band the electrons can gain energy from external electric eld
$iv& 'he electrons in the conduction band are called the free electrons 'hey are able tomove any where within the volume of the solid
$v& Current ,ows due to such electrons
$.& Forbidden energy gap (Eg)
#nergy gap between conduction band and valence band maxmin &$&$ BVBCEg =
$i& +o free electron present in forbidden energy gap
$ii& /idth of forbidden energy gap upon the nature of substance$iii& )s temperature increases $&" forbidden energy gap decreases $& very slightly
