What is Fermi level?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / vivek
Fermi level in an intrinsic semiconductor; located not
exactly in the center of the energy gap because of the
different effective mass of electron and hole.
energy level in solids at which the Fermi-Dirac
distribution function is equal to 0.5.

Answer / sushant
Fermilevel is a intrinsic semiconductory describing the
energy level in between valence band and conduction band
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 6 Yes | 1 No |
Answer / riya bipradas pal
Fermi level lies in between (may not be exactly at the center) the conduction band band and the valence band . An electron can only reach the conduction band from the valance band only if it has got energy higher than the energy of the fermi level energy or fermi band energy .

Answer / srinivas
the energy which corresponds to the centre of gravity of
free electrons and holes weighted according to their
energies.

Answer / karthik
Fermi level: It is the energy level in between of Covalent
Band to Valence Band.Either, to change the energy level band
from covalent to valence (or) valence to covalent band.
