How to Calculate Excitation Energy?
Excitation Energy calculator uses Excitation Energy = 1.6*10^-19*13.6*(Effective Mass of Electron/[Mass-e])*(1/[Permitivity-silicon]^2) to calculate the Excitation Energy, The Excitation Energy formula is defined as the energy required to excite an electron from the valence band into the conduction band of a semiconductor. It is usually measured in terms of eV. Excitation Energy is denoted by Eexc symbol.
How to calculate Excitation Energy using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Excitation Energy, enter Effective Mass of Electron (meff) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Excitation Energy calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1.4E+17 = 1.6*10^-19*13.6*(2E-31/[Mass-e])*(1/[Permitivity-silicon]^2).
