Correct Answer: band to band transition dominants over impurity ionization
Explanation:
Covalent bonds are broken.
2. The word enhancement mode is associated with
Options
A. tunnel diode
B. MOSFET
C. JFET
D. photo diode
Show Answer
Scratch Pad
Discuss
Correct Answer: MOSFET
Explanation:
MOSFET may be depletion mode or enhancement mode.
3. In a bipolar transistor the barrier potential
Options
A. 0
B. a total of 0.7 V
C. 0.7 V across each depletion layer
D. 0.35 V
Show Answer
Scratch Pad
Discuss
Correct Answer: 0.7 V across each depletion layer
Explanation:
Since there are two
p
-
n
junctions, there are two depletion layers and 0.7 V across each layer.
4. When a voltage is applied to a semiconductor crystal then the free electrons will flow.
Options
A. towards positive terminal
B. towards negative terminal
C. either towards positive terminal or negative terminal
D. towards positive terminal for 1 ?s and towards negative terminal for next 1 ?s
Show Answer
Scratch Pad
Discuss
Correct Answer: towards positive terminal
Explanation:
Since electrons are negatively charged they will flow towards positive terminal.

B.
p
type
C. either
n
or
p
D. partially
n
& partially
p
Show Answer
Scratch Pad
Discuss
Correct Answer:
p
type
Explanation:
Since channel is
n
type gate must be
p
type.
9. Recombination produces new electron-hole pairs
Options
A. True
B. False
Show Answer
Scratch Pad
Discuss
Correct Answer: False
Explanation:
Due to recombination the number of electron-hole pairs is reduced.
10. A silicon (PN) junction at a temperature of 20°C has a reverse saturation current of 10 pico Ampere. The reverse saturation current at 40°C for the same bias is approximately.
Options
A. 30 pA
B. 40 pA
C. 50 pA
D. 60 pA
Show Answer
Scratch Pad
Discuss
Correct Answer: 40 pA
Explanation:
By increasing of temperature by 10°C, I
o
become double so by increasing temperature 20°C, I
o
become 4 time than initial value... and it is 40 PA.
