FAQ

What is the Energy Gap?
Energy Gap refers to the energy difference between the valence band and the conduction band in a solid material. It is also known as Band Gap. Energy Gap is usually measured using the Electron-Volt for Energy. Note that the value of Energy Gap is always positive.
Can the Energy Gap be negative?
No, the Energy Gap, measured in Energy cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Energy Gap?
Energy Gap is usually measured using the Electron-Volt[eV] for Energy. Joule[eV], Kilojoule[eV], Gigajoule[eV] are the few other units in which Energy Gap can be measured.
