Chapter 10: Q66E (page 470)

Question: In a diode laser electrons dropping from the conduction band across the gap, and into the valence band produce the photons that add to the coherent light. The ZnTe laser has a band gap of 2.25 eV. About what wavelength laser light would you expect it to produce?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Answer

The wavelength of the light is 551nm .

Step by step solution

01

Given data

The ZnTe Laser light has a band gap of 2.25eV

02

Concept of the energy of a photon

The energy of a photon is related to the frequency f is, E=hf.

The frequency of a related to the wavelength is, f=c位.

Here c is speed of light.

From the above two equations the resultant equation is, E=hc位.

03

Determine the wavelength of laser light 

The energy of a photon is, E=hc位.

Rearrange the above equation for 位is位=hcE.

Substitute 1240鈥�eV.nm for hc and 2.25鈥�eV for E in above equation.

位=hcE=1240鈥�eV.nm2.25鈥�eV=551鈥�nm

Therefore, the wavelength of the light is 551nm.

Assuming an interatomic spacing of 0.15 nm, obtain a rough value for the width (in eV) of then=2 band in a one-dimensional crystal.

Sketch an energy-versus-position diagram. Complementary to Figure 10.4, showing valence hole motion a conduction electron participation in an operating pnp transistor.

The accompanying diagram shows resistivity (reciprocal of conductivity) data for four solid materials from 77Kto 273K. scaled so that the maximum value plotted for each material is 1. Two are metals, one of which undergoes a transition between ordered and disordered spins in this temperature range. Speculate as to which plots correspond to these two metals and what the other two materials might be. Explain your reasoning.

Question:If electrical conductivity were determined by the mere static presence of positive ions rather than by their motion the collision time would be inversely proportional to the electron's average speed. If however, it were dominated by the motion of the ions, it should be inversely proportional to the 鈥渁rea" presented by a jiggling ion, which is in turn proportional to the square of its amplitude as an oscillator. Argue that only the latter view gives the correct temperature dependence in conductors of 蟽鈭�T-1. Use the equipartition theorem (usually covered in introductory thermodynamics and also discussed in Section 9.9).

In the boron atom, the single 2p electron does not completely fill any 2p spatial state, yet solid boron is not a conductor. What might explain this? (It may be helpful to consider again why beryllium is not an insulator.)
