Intrinsic & Extrinsic Semiconductors

For an intrinsic semiconductor (nh(n_h and nen_e are the number of holes per unit volume and number of electrons per unit volume respectively)

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. In an intrinsic semiconductor electrons and holes are created in pairs.
  2. So nh=nen_h = n_e.
  3. So the answer is (b).
