Optical Band Gap

Optical Band Gap is the minimum photon energy required for a material to absorb light, distinguishing it from other electronic transitions by corresponding to the energy difference between the highest occupied valence band and the lowest unoccupied conduction band in the context of interband electronic excitation.
