प्रश्न
With reference to semiconductor physics, answer the following question.
In which material “Forbidden band” is absent?
उत्तर
In the case of a conductor, there is no forbidden gap between the two bands; instead, they overlap. This permits unrestricted electron conduction at all energies, which is a characteristic of conductors.
