List I | List II | ||
A | Intrinsic Semiconductor | I | Fermi-level near the conduction band |
B | n-type semiconductor | II | Fermi-level in the middle of valence and conduction band |
C | p-type semiconductor | III | Fermi-level near the valence band |
D | Metals | IV | Fermi-level inside the conduction band |
The correct option is: (d) A-II, B-III, C-I, D-IV
Intrinsic semiconductor: The Fermi-level is in the middle of the valence and conduction bands.
In n-type semiconductor: The Fermi-level is near the conduction band.
In p-type semiconductor: The Fermi-level is near the valence band.
In metals: The Fermi-level is inside the conduction band.
Which of the following statements is not correct in the case of light emitting diodes (LEDs)?
A. It is a heavily doped p-n junction.
B. It emits light only when it is forward-biased.
C. It emits light only when it is reverse-biased.
D. The energy of the light emitted is equal to or slightly less then the energy gap of the semiconductor used.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Semiconductors are a crystalline solid materials, whose electrical conductivity lies between a conductor and an insulator. Semiconductors are mainly used in the manufacturing of electronic devices like capacitors, transistors, diodes, Integrated circuits, etc.
