In semiconductors at room temperature,
- A the valence band is completely filled and the conduction band partially filled.
- B the valence band is completely filled.
- C the conduction band is completely filled.
- D the valence band is partially empty and the conduction band partially filled.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) the valence band is partially empty and the conduction band partially filled.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In semiconductors at room temperature the electrons get enough energy so that they are able to over come the forbidden gap. Thus at room temperature the valence band is partially empty and conduction band is partially filled.
