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:

  1. (A) I, (B) II, (C) III, (D) IV
  2. (A) II, (B) I, (C) III, (D)  IV
  3. (A) II, (B) III, (C) I, (D) IV
  4. (A) III, (B) I, (C) II, (D) IV

Solution

(A) The Fermi-level in an intrinsic semiconductor is nearly midway between the conductive and valence band.So, AII.

(B) In the case of n-type semiconductor, the Fermi level is present just below the conduction band. So, BIII.

(C) Fermi level in a p-type semiconductor lies close to the top of the valence band. So, CI

(D) In metals and semimetals the Fermi level lies inside at least one band i.e., inside conduction band. So, DIV.
