A semiconductor is a material that in it A semiconductor is a material that in it pure form does not conduct electricity pure form does not conduct electricity well.well.
Silicon is a common semiconductor with Silicon is a common semiconductor with four electrons in its outer shell.four electrons in its outer shell.
A silicon atom shares electrons with four A silicon atom shares electrons with four neighboring atoms allowing the outer shell neighboring atoms allowing the outer shell to be filled completely.to be filled completely.

By substituting some of the Silicon with atoms By substituting some of the Silicon with atoms that have five (instead of four) outer electrons, that have five (instead of four) outer electrons, there are electrons left over to roamthere are electrons left over to roam
By substituting some of the Silicon with atoms By substituting some of the Silicon with atoms that have three outer electrons there are that have three outer electrons there are ‘holes’ created.‘holes’ created.

What makes the light white?What makes the light white? LEDs usually emit one wavelength LEDs usually emit one wavelength
(color) of light.(color) of light. Most White LEDs use a blue LED Most White LEDs use a blue LED
(GaN) covered with a yellow phosphor (GaN) covered with a yellow phosphor coating. The yellow mixed with blue coating. The yellow mixed with blue appears white.appears white.
A phosphor material emits light when exposed to radiation. In this case the phosphor is “excited” by the blue light and in turn emits yellow light.
