Equilibrium carrier densities refer to the number of carriers in the conduction and valence band with no externally applied bias.Non-degenerate semiconductors are defined as semiconductors for which the Fermi energy is at least 3kT away from either band edge. It essentailly is a semiconductor whose conduction band level is much higher than the fermi-level and whose valence band level is much lower than the fermi-level. In a non degenerate semiconductor, the probability of the state at the bottom of the conduction band can be approximated to e<sup>(E<sub>f</sub> - E<sub>C</sub>) / k<sub>B</sub>T</sup>. Therefore, n, the electron density, is proportional to this value. Similarly, the probability of the state at the top of the valence band can be approximated to e<sup>(E<sub>V</sub> - E<sub>f</sub>) / k<sub>B</sub>T</sup>. Therefore, p, the electron density, is proportional to this value.

However, heavily doped semiconductors are an exception. At large dopant concentrations, impurity ion distribution causes significant fluctuations in the local electrostatic potential, which gives rise to a spacial variation in th elocal density of states distribution. When averaged over the entire lattice, the conduction band and valence band essentially merge.
