This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the fundamental principles underlying semiconductor physics, exploring concepts such as energy band theory, charge carrier dynamics, and the behavior of p-n junctions.
A logical deduction can be made that by employing semiconductor electrochemistry, because a semiconductor provides two energy levels (the conduction band (CB) and the valence band (VB)), the charge transfer occurring at these two energy levels can be easily controlled.
The field of semiconductor physics has evolved over several decades, shaped by rigorous scientific inquiry and technological innovation. This literature review encompasses foundational theories, historical milestones, key materials, contemporary applications, and future directions in semiconductor device research.
In the case of p-type (normally on the cathode side) semiconductors, the Fermi level normally exists at lower energy (near the VB and more negative) than that of the electrolyte, and its EF shifts to higher energy (downward band bending) at the interface.
In order to implement chemical energy storage systems effectively, they need to address practical issues such as limited lifetime, safety concerns, scarcity of material, and environmental impact. 4.3.3. Expert opinion Research efforts need to be focused on robustness, safety, and environmental friendliness of chemical energy storage technologies.
