\(\mathrm{C}\) and \(\mathrm{Si}\) both have the same lattice structure, having \(4\) bonding electrons in each. However, \(\mathrm{C}\) is an insulator whereas \(\mathrm{Si}\) is an intrinsic semiconductor. This is because:
| 1. | in the case of \(\mathrm{C},\) the valence band is not completely filled at absolute zero temperature. |
| 2. | in the case of \(\mathrm{C},\) the conduction band is partly filled even at absolute zero temperature. |
| 3. | the four bonding electrons in the case of \(\mathrm{C}\) lie in the second orbit, whereas in the case of \(\mathrm{Si},\) they lie in the third. |
| 4. | the four bonding electrons in the case of \(\mathrm{C}\) lie in the third orbit, whereas for \(\mathrm{Si},\) they lie in the fourth orbit. |
