puolijohdekiteen
Puolijohdekide refers to a crystalline solid material that has electrical conductivity between that of a conductor and an insulator. This property is crucial in modern electronics. The conductivity of a semiconductor can be manipulated by introducing impurities through a process called doping, which creates either n-type (excess electrons) or p-type (electron holes) semiconductors.
The behavior of electrons within the crystal lattice of a puolijohdekide is described by band theory. In
Common examples of puolijohdekide materials include silicon (Si) and germanium (Ge), which are elements from Group
