Explanation

(c) In intrinsic semiconductors, the creation or liberation of one free electron by the thermal energy has created one hole. Thus in intrinsic semiconductors  nP=ne

Wires P and Q have the same resistance at ordinary (room) temperature. When heated, resistance of P increases and that of Q decreases. We conclude that

Explanation

(d) In P-type semiconductors, holes are majority charge carrier and electrons are minority charge carriers

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.
