What is Fermi-Dirac Distribution in Semiconductors about?
The document discusses the expressions for thermal equilibrium carrier concentrations (n0 and p0) in semiconductors when the Boltzmann approximation is not valid and the full Fermi-Dirac distribution must be used. It is shown that n0 and p0 can be written in terms of the half Fermi-Dirac integral, F1/2(ηF), and involve the effective density of states in the conduction and valence bands, Nc and Nv. The law of mass action is also derived using these expressions.
