Why are Electron-Hole Pairs Important in Nanotechnology?
Electron-hole pairs are crucial in nanotechnology because they facilitate fundamental processes such as charge transport, energy conversion, and light emission. For instance, in photovoltaic cells, electron-hole pairs generated by sunlight contribute to the generation of electric current. Likewise, in light-emitting diodes (LEDs), the recombination of electron-hole pairs results in light emission.
