(N/A) The band gap of the semiconductor used in the making of a Light Emitting Diode $(LED)$ is typically in the range of $1.8 \ eV$ to $3.0 \ eV$.
This energy range corresponds to the visible spectrum of light,allowing the $LED$ to emit light in colors ranging from red to violet.
The specific band gap depends on the material composition of the semiconductor used (e.g.,Gallium Arsenide Phosphide or Gallium Nitride).
