In the energy band diagram of a material shown below, the open circles and filled circles denote holes and electrons respectively. The material is

Options

  1. Aan insulator
  2. Ba metal
  3. Can n -type semiconductor
  4. Da p-type semiconductor.

Correct answer

D. a p-type semiconductor.

Step-by-step solution

In this Band diagram, number of holes in valence band are more as compared to no.number of electrons in the conduction band. So, it is a p-type semiconductor.
