JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 14. Semicondutor electronics

The temperature dependence of resistances of \(Cu\) and undoped \(Si\) in the temperature range \(300-400\;K\), is best described by

  1. A Linear increase for \(Cu\), exponential decrease for \(Si\)
  2. B Linear decrease for \(Cu\), linear decrease for \(Si\)
  3. C Linear increase for \(Cu\), linear increase for \(Si\)
  4. D Linear increase for \(Cu\), exponential increase for \(Si \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) Linear increase for \(Cu\), exponential decrease for \(Si\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(Cu\) is conductor so with increase in temperature, resistance will increase \(Si\) is semiconductor so with increase in temperature resistance will decrease
