Valence Band
Is the highest in the intervals of electronic energies (or bands) which is
occupied by electrons in the absolute zero
These are the valence electrons, those electrons that are found in the last
layer or energy level of the atoms.
Conduction Band
Is the range of electronic energies that is above the valence band
Pregunta
Do the valence electrons are involved in the electrical conduction?
The valence electrons are those which form the bonds between atoms, but
do not intervene in the electrical conduction
The electrons that participate in the electrical conduction are those that are
in the conduction band
