CONDUCTION BAND
In semiconductors and insulators, the 'conduction band' is the range of electron energy, higher than that of the valence band, sufficient to make the electrons free to accelerate under the influence of an applied electric field and thus constitute an electric current. Semiconductors may cross this conduction band when they are excited.
