Bohr model of an atom

As seen in this model,


electrons circle the
nucleus. Atomic
structure of a material
determines its ability
to conduct or insulate.

Robotic Embedded System Lab 2012

Covalent Bonding ( )
Covalent bonding is a bonding of two or more atoms by
the interaction of their valence electrons.

Robotic Embedded System Lab 2012

The process of creating N- and P-type materials


is called doping.
Other atoms with 5
electrons such as Antimony
() are added to Silicon to
increase the free electrons.

Other atoms with 3 electrons


such as Boron () are added
to Silicon to create a
deficiency of electrons or
hole charges.

How To g

When the negative end of the

When the positive end of the


circuit is hooked up to the Ntype layer and the negative
end is hooked up to the Ptype layer, free electrons
collect on one end of the
