you calculate the conductivity of these materials from your resistance measurements? Explain. The cut-off wavelength of a material corresponds to the lowest light energy that can promote an electron across the band-gap E₁. Accordingly, use your Transmission spectrum to provide an estimate of the band-gap energy E, for zinc selenide. E₂ hc == Your report should include: 1- A table of resistance values in 2 for each materials. 2- A discussion of the connection between resistance and conductivity. 3- A discussion of the correlation between the bonding type and the electrical resistance for each material. In particular, discuss the case of zinc selenide. 4- An Excel graph of Transmission spectra for each material. 5- A discussion of the correlation between the bonding type and the optical transparency for each material. 6- An estimate of the band-gap energy E, for zinc selenide including details of your calculations. 7- A discussion of why you could not measure the cut-off wavelength for silicon of for the glass slide.
