The Fermi Level (with Fermi energy Ef) is the "surface" of this sea where electrons will not have enough energy to rise above the surface. It is the energy level which is occupied by the highest electron orbital at 0 Kelvin (absolute zero temperature) and a parameter of the Fermi-Dirac distribution: Carriers in intrinsic semiconductors Fermi level position in intrinsic semiconductor .

A much larger number of conduction electrons can be introduced if desired by introducing suitable impurity atoms—a process called doping, Fermi levels, forward bias Prof J. S. Smith Department of EECS University of California, Berkeley EECS 105 Spring 2004, Lecture 19 Prof. J. S. Smith Context The first part of this lecture is a review of electrons and holes in silicon: zFermi levels and Quasi-Fermi levels zMajority and minority carriers zDrift zDiffusion And we will apply these to: In insulators and semiconductors the Fermi level is inside a band gap; however, in semiconductors the bands are near enough to the Fermi level to be thermally populated with electrons or holes. edit, Fermi-Dirac distribution vs. energy , with μ = 0.55 eV and for various temperatures in the range 50 K ≤ T ≤ 375 K. In recent times, we have shown that this approach explains the Fermi level shift and doping efficiency of various molecularly doped organic semiconductors, measured by ultraviolet photoelectron The dependence of the Fermi level on temperature, doping concentration, and disorder in disordered semiconductors September 2000 Journal of Applied Physics 88(6):3479-3483 1.6.4 The position of the Fermi level, The position of the Fermi level fixes the charge carrier concentration (the charge carriers are free electrons and holes) and the extent to which the defects in the semiconductor are ionized. It depends on two important factors:18,27,29, 1. the nature and concentration of the impurity in the semiconductor; 2. Effect of Doping on Fermi Level.

A semiconductor doped with donors will have many more electrons than holes. This hence its quasi Fermi level is very close to the equilibrium value.
