Why resistance of semiconductor decreases with increase in temperature?
Answered by admin @
Answer:
As a result, in higher temperatures, a semi-conductor's valence electrons are free = conduction results, resistivity decreases. ... Higher the bandgap of a semi-conductor - more the energy needed to convert it into a conductor. The bandgap of Germanium is 0.67 eV, silicon at 1.1 eV.
