In semiconductors at room temperature,
- A the valence band is completely filled.
- B the conduction band is completely empty.
- C the conduction band is partially filled and the valence band is partially empty.
- D the valence band is completely filled and conduction band is partially empty.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) the conduction band is partially filled and the valence band is partially empty.
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.
