At zero Kelvin a piece of germanium

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

(c) At zero Kelvin, there is no thermal agitation and therefore no electrons from valence band are able to shift to conduction band.

A semiconductor is cooled from T1K to T2K. Its resistance

Explanation

(c) In semiconductors, Forbidden energy gap is of the order of 1 eV.

The intrinsic semiconductor becomes an insulator at

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

(d) At 0K temperature semiconductor behaves as an insulator, because at very low temperature electrons cannot jump from the valence band to conduction band.

In a good conductor the energy gap between the conduction band and the valence band is

Explanation

(d) The conduction and valence bands in the conductors merge into each other.

The impurity atom added to germanium to make it N-type semiconductor is
