Hi everyone.
I want to determine Fermi energy from the band structure of a conductor and a semiconductor.
I believe that for semiconductors, it is given by the average of highest energy in the valence band and the lowest energy in the conduction band. Please correct me if required.
I am wondering how to obtain fermi energy for conductors where those two bands are overlapping.
Thanks in advance.
Hello,
Seeking Help: Can anyone share a copy of the following articles: P.C. Bregman, M. Kuipers, H.L.J. Teerling, W.A. van der Veen. Strength and stiffness of a flexible high-pressure spiral hose. Acta Mechanica 97, 185-204 (1993) and B.A. van den Horn & M. Kuipers. Strength and stiffness of a reinforced flexible hose. Applied Scientific Research 45: 251-281 (1988) (which I had and somehow lost).
Thanks in advance
