Energy band theory in solids - Electronics, Physics - eSaral

Hey, do you want to learn about the Energy band theory in solids? If yes. Then you are at the right place. Energy Bands in solid Valence band: The electrons in the outermost shells are not strongly bonded to their nuclei, these electrons are valence electrons. The band formed by these electrons is called the valence band. Conduction band: Valence electrons are loosely attached to the nucleus. Even at ordinary temperature, some of the valence electrons left the valence band. These are called free...
