On heating n-type semiconductors -
- A the number of holes increases while that of electrons decreases.
- B the number of electrons increases while that of holes decreases.
- C the number of holes and electrons remains same.
- D Both the number of holes and the number of electrons increase equally.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) Both the number of holes and the number of electrons increase equally.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Both the number of holes and the number of electrons increase equally. The majority carriers are electrons, and the minority carriers are holes. When the temperature increases, more electrons gain enough thermal energy to jump from the valence band to the conduction band,…
