Question

Part b):Find the number of electrons produced in the semiconductor material.

Photon Flux & Renewable Energy:

The follow question involves the photon flux of a light source shown in Figure1.: From the graph presented below, the photon flux of light consists of 3 cm^2 Cross Section Area.

The light operated only for 2 seconds to illuminate a semiconductor (the semiconductor has a Cross-section Area of 2cm^2 and an energy band gap E gap = 1.1 e V)

sec. cm 300 200 100 0.8 10 1.2 1.4 E(el) Figure 1

Answer #1

E = 1.2eV and 1.4eV are the only values which will generate electrons since they are > E gap.

Number of electrons generated = Total number of photons corresponding to 1.2eV and 1.4eV

          = Ф . Areasemiconductor . time

          = 100*2*2 + 200*2*2

          = 1200
