Narrow-gap semiconductors are semiconducting materials with a magnitude of bandgap that is smaller than 0.5 eV, which corresponds to an infrared absorption...

those with small band gaps (also called "narrow" band gaps) are semiconductor, and conductors either have very small band gaps or none, because the valence...

intrinsic semiconductor is enabled purely by electron excitation across the band-gap, which is usually small at room temperature except for narrow-bandgap...

semiconductors (also known as WBG semiconductors or WBGSs) are semiconductor materials which have a larger band gap than conventional semiconductors....

made from the elements indium (In) and antimony (Sb). It is a narrow-gap semiconductor material from the III-V group used in infrared detectors, including...

A semiconductor is a material that has an electrical conductivity value falling between that of a conductor, such as copper, and an insulator, such as...

mentioned. The first scheme exploits a narrow-gap indirect semiconductor or analogous indirect gap semiconductor heterostructure where the tuning into...

photon energy level. For typical semiconductor photodetectors, QE drops to zero for photons whose energy is below the band gap. A photographic film typically...

stable at room temperature, is a narrow-gap semiconductor, with space group P212121. The exact size of the band gap has been given variously from 0.02...

Semiconductor materials are nominally small band gap insulators. The defining property of a semiconductor material is that it can be compromised by doping...

held together by weak van der Waals forces. Sb2Te3 is a narrow-gap semiconductor with a band gap 0.21 eV; it is also a topological insulator, and thus exhibits...

the cation and Te forming the anionic lattice. It is a narrow gap semiconductor with a band gap of 0.32 eV. It occurs naturally as the mineral altaite...

resulting in increased strength of the alloy. Magnesium silicide is a narrow-gap semiconductor. Its as-grown crystal exhibit n-type conductivity, but it can be...

array. The materials basis for infrared detection devices are narrow-gap semiconductors, including compounds and alloys of bismuth, antimony, indium,...

A semiconductor detector in ionizing radiation detection physics is a device that uses a semiconductor (usually silicon or germanium) to measure the effect...

higher sensitivity other detectors may be used, including other narrow gap semiconductor detectors, low temperature bolometer arrays or photon-counting...

spectroscopy. This effect is present in most semiconductors but it is particularly strong in narrow-gap semiconductors (mainly arsenides and antimonides) such...

zinc, an alloy of mercury telluride and zinc telluride. It is a narrow-gap semiconductor material. Mercury zinc telluride is used in infrared detectors...

termination. This approach is suited to describe normal metals and some narrow gap semiconductors. Figure 3 shows an example of a Shockley state, derived using...

A semiconductor device is an electronic component that relies on the electronic properties of a semiconductor material (primarily silicon, germanium,...
