What are semiconductors?
Think about their conductivity range.
Name two common semiconductor materials.
Consider what is widely used in electronics.
What type of semiconductor is pure without impurities?
This is the opposite of doped semiconductors.
True or False: Higher temperatures lead to decreased conductivity in semiconductors.
Consider the relationship between energy and charge carriers.
A piece of silicon is heated from 0 K to room temperature. Describe how its conductivity will change, including the mechanisms involved.
Focus on how temperature affects the movements of charge carriers.
In a p-type semiconductor doped with Boron, explain how the energy band diagram will differ from an intrinsic semiconductor.
Consider what happens to the Fermi level with added dopants.
