Question
How is displacement current produced between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor during charging?
✓

Answer

Conduction current is established by actual movement of free electrons through a metallic conductor while displacement current is established by polarization of molecules of a dielectric under the influence of an external electric field. Displacement current is produced by time varying electric flux and electric field across the dielectric medium between capacitor plates that leads to polarization and displacement of charges.

When a semiconducting material is doped with an impurity, new acceptor levels are created. In a particular thermal collision, a valence electron receives an energy equal to 2kT and just reaches one of the acceptor levels. Assuming that the energy of the electron was at the top edge of the valence band and that the temperature T is equal to 300K, find the energy of the acceptor levels above the valence band.
