Welcome to a new chapter of your class 12th Physics and a very different one, a new dimension, a new learning, and a new opportunity to score. Semiconductor is one of the most basic things in class 12th physics, By basic, I mean easy to understand.

So What’s the deal with Semiconductor?
See, Semiconductor requires a good amount of conceptual clarity, and to fix that, you hunt for good resources. And for that Doubtconnect is here, We’re gonna list down all the things that you require for the Chapter, Semiconductor.

So before we get into the chapter, let’s see what we’re gonna deal with inside this chapter

  • Intrinsic Semiconductor
  • Extrinsic Semiconductor
  • Difference between types of semiconductor
  • Electron hole concentration

So Now let’s see how we’re gonna go through it.

At first, you need to go through concepts, concepts will be developed after watching a good amount of animated content or any content related to it.

So here are a few video suggestions. We’ll cover both free and paid content, here’s the list.

  • Semiconductor by Physicswallah (Free + Paid)
  • Semiconductor by Unacademy (Free + Paid)
  • NV Sir, Etoos (Paid)
  • Sachin Sir Physics, Youtube (Free)
  • Vedantu Youtube (Free)
  • Apni Kaksha,Youtube (Free)

Go through the notes at least 2 to 3 times to learn the maximum amount of topics and facts of the chapter. Learning the formulas and definitions is very important as it will help you score better. To make the understanding of the chapter very clear in students’ minds. Illustrations and example questions are picked from competitive examinations like JEE, IIT, and also other exams.

#Books

So, once you’re done with understanding the concept through visualization, you have to come to read the theory line by line. And for that you need a good book. It was fine while grabbing the concept through books, but now you need to remember it, so read any of the books thoroughly mentioned below.

  • NOTE: Read NCERT Physics, before any of these books.
  • HC Verma

Indian God of Physics, is one of the best things you can find. The book is sufficient till Mains and touches a little bit of Advanced.

  • Coaching Material

Any good coaching material of reputed institutes like FIITJEE, Reso, Allen and Aakash. You can even try something from Physics Wallah or Unacademy.

  • SL Arora

A good catch for the Mid-level entrance examination is SL Arora, although a lot of people get it as a Class 12 refresher book, but still a good choice.

# PRACTICE, PRACTICE & PRACTICE

Although there are not many numerical to practice in this chapter, there can be a lot of conceptual questions too. So just be prepared for it by revising your notes again and again.

And one very important suggestion is that you should be SHORT NOTES, especially for this chapter. (Game Changer).

So this is all that you need to conquer this chapter as nothing more is required. Semiconductor, Done and Dusted once you’re done doing all the things mentioned above.

Above all, while doing any of these things, just be open-minded as the knowledge containing rays coming to your head might divert if you’ll not be attentive, (Why do we sound like your teacher with lame jokes).

So this was all and if you get any doubts regarding this or any of your subjects whether Physics, Chemistry or Mathematics, don’t forget to log in at DOUBT CONNECT.
