Gap
The term gap is used in the physics of semiconductors when considering their valence band and conduction band.
Between these two bands there is an energy gap into which a charge carrier cannot go: it is a forbidden band. The gap in question is the energy gap between the two bands.
The valence and conduction bands for an insulator, a semiconductor and a metal conductor. Credit: Francoise Mulhauser
