Particle Theory of Light
The particle theory of light was the proposal made by Newton in 1704 in his treatise Opticks. This is the most basic light theory, in which light is thought to be made up of microscopic particles known as "corpuscles" and that's why this particle theory …
Stopping Potential
In an experiment conducted by Heinrich Hertz, an apparatus was made where the incident light was made to fall on the metallic plate, it was discovered that metals emit electrons. The surface electrons are bound to metals with a minimum amount of energy a…
Quantization of Charges
An electron is a negatively charged subatomic particle either attached to an an atom or sticks to the nucleus of the atom. Electrons exert the negative charge that tries to balance the positive charge of the nucleus.

To determine

The reason that an electron will be found within one of the GaAIAs layers rather than GaAs.

Introduction: The semiconductor metal which having less thermal conductivity and heat transfer rate than metal, There are two types of semiconductor, first one is gallium arsenide and second one is silicon semiconductor. The gallium arsenide transfers the electrons from valence bond to covalent bond at 2.5 eV.
