Using Passive voice Complete the spaces in the text with each one of the words in the box. COMBINING SEMICONDUCTORS WITH PHOSPHORUS A LED (lightemitting diode) is a device that emits visible light when an electric current passes through it. To manufacture LEDs, semiconductors _________ _________________ with ________________ by phosphors. When electricity passes through a diode, infrared radiation ________ __________________ by the semiconductor. This radiation ________ _______ the phosphors in the diode and it ___________ then _______________ as visible light. LEDs ________________ as indicator lights and in the alphanumeric displays on many of _______________ in LEDs are called III-V compound ______________ from combinations of the electronic devices and appliances that we use at home and at work. The semiconductors that ________ semiconductors. This is because they _______

elements from column III of the periodic table (aluminium, gallium, and indium) and elements from column V of the periodic table (phosphorus, arsenic, and antimony). The precise ratio of column III elements to column V elements in a semiconductor _______ versus infrared radiation, and brightness are determined. ____________ by the manufacturer. In this way, the specific characteristics of a LED color, the amount of visible
