Bandgap engineering has a wide range of applications in various fields:
Solar Cells: Optimizing the bandgap of materials used in solar cells can enhance their efficiency by improving their ability to absorb sunlight. LEDs: By controlling the bandgap, LEDs can be designed to emit light of specific wavelengths, enabling the creation of devices with precise color outputs. Transistors: Bandgap engineering can improve the performance of transistors by optimizing their on/off states and reducing power consumption. Photodetectors: Tailoring the bandgap of materials used in photodetectors can enhance their sensitivity to specific wavelengths of light.
