In a symmetric model with constant density of states D per volume and energy in two broad bands, charge neutrality gives μ=(Ec​+Ev​)/2 and n=p=DkB​Tln[1+e−Eg​/(2kB​T)]. In the nondegenerate limit, n≃DkB​Te−Eg​/(2kB​T). Thus the leading exponential activation law can coexist with an algebraic temperature prefactor.
