Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is option 1):(Iron)
Concept:
Semiconductor:
- A semiconductor is a substance that has resistivity in between the conductor and insulator.
- A semiconductor has 4 valance electrons that are C, Si, Ge, Sn, and Pb,Te
- Here Iron is not a semiconductor.It is a conductor
- Type of semiconductors are
- Semiconductors that are chemically pure, in other words, free from impurities are termed as intrinsic semiconductors
- Extrinsic semiconductors are semiconductors that are doped with specific impurities. The impurity modifies the electrical properties of the semiconductor and makes it more suitable for electronic devices such as diodes and transistors
