When an n-type semiconductor is heated
- A number of electrons increases while that of holes decreases
- B number of holes increases while that of electrons decreases
- C number of holes and electrons do not change
- D number of holes and electrons increases equally
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) number of holes and electrons increases equally
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
When an n-type semiconductor is heated, number of holes and electrons increases equally as when a free electron is produced, simultaneously a hole is also produced.
