he continues &nbsp;(Delft U)</p>

<p>

pub Nov 2013....</p>

<p>

takes 2 electrons to make a bond</p>

<p>

109 degrees...</p>

<p>

4 electrons in outer shells</p>

<p>

SP(3)...</p>

<p>

SP3 &nbsp;hybrid.</p>

<p>

how is a obnd made btwn 2 atoms...</p>

<p>

&nbsp;

two atoms mush approach; &nbsp;orbital has its own shape.</p>

<p>

nature splits &nbsp;into &nbsp;indivs &nbsp;vs bonding level...

one electron up; the other is &nbsp;down;</p>

<p>

lower &nbsp;energy level in the bond; &nbsp;and lower than the anti-bonding level.</p>

<p>

go to minute 4.30 !</p>

<p>

anti-bonding &nbsp;is the conduction band...</p>

<p>

band gap is btwn &nbsp;valence &nbsp;and conduction...</p>

<p>

carbon is not a semiconductor... &nbsp;look at bond length...</p>

<p>

bondlength * &nbsp;4/sqrt 2 = lattice constant.</p>

<p>

diamond has largest band gap.</p>

<p>

&nbsp;

iii-v semiconductors.</p>

<p>

one has 3 valence electrons; the other has 5 val electrons...</p>
