Abstract

In the wide range of PLS activities, one on semiconductors was realized with high-school 4th- and 5th-year students. After an introduction on semiconductor and electromagnetic radiation concepts, students assembled circuits, observed photoresistor and LED behavior and compared experimental and theoretical results. We especially paid attention to energy conversions and devices applications. An important point of the project is that it can be easily realized in our schools because low-cost devices are used. Moreover, discussing experimental results, it is possible to correct or complete students phenomena interpretation.
