Posted: Jan 28, 2015: Holes in valence bands of nanodiamonds discovered (Nanowerk News) Nanodiamonds are tiny crystals only a few nanometres in size.While they possess the crystalline structure of ...

Weyl semimetals are topological materials whose low-energy excitations obey the Weyl equation. In a Weyl semimetal, the conduction and valence bands touch at discrete points in momentum space ...

Definition: Band Gap Engineering is a process used in semiconductor material science to tailor the energy gap between the valence and conduction bands.This manipulation affects how electrons and holes ...

P-type semiconductors are created by doping a semiconductor with an impurity that has fewer valence electrons than the semiconductor. This creates “holes” in the semiconductor valence band, where ...
