LED is constructed from G a - A s - P semiconducting material. The energy gap of this LED is 1 . 9 eV . Calculate the wavelength of light emitted and its colour. h = 6 . 63 × 10 - 34 J - s and c = 3 × 10 8 m s - 1
Options
- A654   nm and red colour
- B654   nm and orange colour
- C1046   nm and red colour
- D1046   nm and blue colour
Correct answer
A. 654   nm and red colour
Step-by-step solution
λ = h c E = 6 . 6 × 10 - 34 × 3 × 10 8 1 . 9 × 1 . 6 × 10 - 19 = 6 . 54 × 10 - 7 = 654   nm Red color
