Solution: The gap between valence and conduction bands in
Chapter 42, Problem 42.19(choose chapter or problem)
The gap between valence and conduction bands in silicon is 1.12 eV. A nickel nucleus in an excited state emits a gammaray photon with wavelength 9.31 * 10-4 nm. How many electrons can be excited from the top of the valence band to the bottom of the conduction band by the absorption of this gamma ray?
