Match the List I with List II
| List I | List II | ||
| A | Intrinsic Semiconductor | I | Fermi-level near valence band |
| B | n-type semiconductor | II | Fermi-level at middle of valence and conduction band |
| C | p-type semiconductor | III | Fermi-level near conduction band |
| D | Metals | IV | Fermi-level inside conduction band |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Options
- A(A) I, (B) II, (C) III, (D) IV
- B(A) II, (B) I, (C) III, (D) IV
- C(A) II, (B) III, (C) I, (D) IV
- D(A) III, (B) I, (C) II, (D) IV
Correct answer
C. (A) II, (B) III, (C) I, (D) IV
Step-by-step solution
(A) The Fermi-level in an intrinsic semiconductor is nearly midway between the conductive and valence band.So, .
(B) In the case of n-type semiconductor, the Fermi level is present just below the conduction band. So, .
(C) Fermi level in a p-type semiconductor lies close to the top of the valence band. So,
(D) In metals and semimetals the Fermi level lies inside at least one band i.e., inside conduction band. So, .
