MindMap Gallery Band Theory of Solids
This mind map explains the band theory of solids, categorizing materials into conductors, insulators, and semiconductors based on their electronic band structure. Conductors exhibit high electrical conductivity due to overlapping conduction and valence bands. Insulators have a wide energy gap (≥3eV) between these bands, preventing electron flow. Semiconductors have a small energy gap (<2eV), allowing limited conductivity. The diagrams illustrate the energy band structures for metals, insulators, and semiconductors, providing a clear visual representation of their electronic properties.
