About This Product
As a PN junction is heated, its reverse saturation current rises in a way that depends on the band gap. Students record the current at a series of temperatures, plot the logarithm of current against reciprocal temperature and work out the band gap from the slope, a standard college physics practical on semiconductors. Schools, colleges and institutes in Maldives, United States, Vietnam, Saint Lucia, Georgia and Tunisia can order the Energy Band Gap Apparatus from Educational Instrument.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the junction heated in the Energy Band Gap Apparatus?
