forbidden zone' in reference to band theory of solids:-According to bond theory, forbidden zone is the energy gap between valence band and conduction band in solids.This gap is large in insulators and small in semi-conductors.There is no forbidden zone in metals, because in metals valence and conduction band overlap.
