Identify the correct statements among the following.
(A) At 0 K, the resistance of a semiconductor is infinite.
(B) In an n-type semiconductor, the electron concentration is approximately equal to the concentration of donor atoms.
(C) In p-type semiconductors, the acceptor levels lie near the conduction band.
(D) In n-type semiconductors, the charge carriers are both electrons and holes.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A (A), (B) and (C) only
  2. B (B), (C) and (D) only
  3. C (A), (B) and (D) only

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) (A), (B) and (D) only

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(A), (B) and (D) only (A) Correct: At 0 K, there is no thermal energy to promote electrons from the valence band to the conduction band. The semiconductor behaves as a perfect insulator with infinite resistance. (B) Correct: In n-type semiconductors, each donor atom contributes…
