Draw the energy band diagram of (i) n-type, and (ii) p-type semiconductors at temperature T > 0 K. In the case of n-type Si-semiconductor, the donor energy level is slightly below the bottom of conduction band whereas in p-type semiconductor, the acceptor energy level is slightly above the top of valence band. Explain, giving examples, what role do these energy levels play in conduction and valence bands.
