Conduction band: This is the upper band; see figure. In this band, the electrons are freely moving about, causing the electric current when a potential difference is applied across the solid (conductor). This band may be empty, or partially filled.
When energy is supplied to the electrons in the valence band, they jump to the conduction band and are accommodated there.
