Question 206: Semiconductors and Logic Gates

Question

At absolute zero, Si acts as

Accepted Answer

Pure silicon, at absolute zero, will contain all the electrons in bounded state. The conduction band will be empty. So there will be no free electrons (in conduction band) and holes (in valence band) due to thermal agitation. Pure silicon will act as insulator.
