MCQ
A pure semiconductor at absolute zero has :
  • A
    Absence of electrons in the conduction band.
  • B
    All the electrons occupying the valence band.
  • C
    Large $E_g$​ value.
  • All of the above.

Answer

Correct option: D.
All of the above.
At absolute zero temperature, in a pure semiconductor, all electrons occupy the valence band and no electrons are present in the conduction band. The forbidden gap energy $E_g$​ is large.
