The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Triode valve consists of a cathode, grid and anode. When current is passed in the filament by connecting it to a battery, the filament is heated and it heats up the cathode, so electrons start emitting from the cathode. Anode plate is connected to the positive terminal of a battery. Thus, anode is positive with respect to cathode, electrons being negatively charged get attracted towards anode and a continuous plate current flows. when both grid and anode are positive maximum plate current flows.

Concepts Used:

Semiconductors

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.

Properties of Semiconductor:

  1. Semiconductor acts like an insulator at Zero Kelvin. On increasing the temperature, it works as a conductor.
  2. Due to their exceptional electrical properties, semiconductors can be modified by doping to make semiconductor devices suitable for energy conversion, switches, and amplifiers.
  3. Lesser power losses.

Uses of Semiconductor:

  1. Semiconductors are widely used in manufacturing electronics devices like transistors, diodes, sensors, integrated circuits.
  2. Semiconductors are widely used in all electronic devices, like mobile phones, digital cameras, communication devices, trains, ATMs, etc.
