WHAT IS CONDUCTION?
• It is the transfer of energy in the form of heat or
electricity.
• It occurs between two objects by direct contact.
• It occurs in solids, liquids, and gases.
TYPES OF CONDUCTION:
There are three types of conduction:
Electric Conduction
Heat Conduction
Photoconductivity
ELECTRICAL CONDUCTION:
• It is the movement of electrically charged particles through a
transmission medium.
• The movement can form an electric current in response to an electric
field.
• For the explanation of Electrical Conduction we will consider band
theory.
BAND THEORY:
• In an atom, electrons revolve around the nucleus in different orbits.
• The position occupied by an electron in an atom signifies a certain
energy level of that electron.
• Opposite charges in electron and nucleus creates force of attraction
between them.
• When atoms are brought together, the electrons of one atom experience
forces of other atoms. Energy bands are formed, i.e. Valence band and
Conduction Band.
