BAND GAP NARROWING

It is observed experimentally that a shrinkage of the band gap occurs when the impurity concentration is particularly high. This effect is called the band gap narrowing effect which is ascribed to the emerging

of the impurity band formed by the overlapped impurity states. In devices

containing adjacent layers or regions with different doping concentrations, dopinginduced shifting of the conduction band minimum and the valence band maximum may greatly influence the device behavior. This is because the shifts in the band edges represent a potential barrier which influences the carrier transport across the junctions
