In a semiconductor, current conduction is due to________________?
Correct answer: C. Holes and free electrons
- A. Only holes
- B. Only free electrons
- C. Holes and free electrons
- D. None of the above
Explanation
Semiconductor current is the sum of electron current and hole current. Their relative contributions depend on whether the material is intrinsic or doped n-type or p-type.
