Semiconductor Energetics and Statistics

Recall that in the two-pipe model of semiconducting behavior the fluid level is argued to be the hydraulic equivalent of the Fermi level.s

From Fermi Function and Localized Energy States including the temperature effects.

From Carrier Concentration vs. Fermi Level: the doping with donor and acceptor impurities.


Moderate-doping vs. Heavy-doping [non-degenerate vs. degenerate]
Moderate-doping: non-degenerate system	Heavy-doping: degenerate system
