The conduction due to charges produced by pair generation in a semi-conductor is called:
Correct answer: B. Intrinsic conduction
- A. Polarity
- B. Intrinsic conduction
- C. Electrostatic
- D. Amplitude modulation
Explanation
Intrinsic conduction in semiconductors refers to the conduction of charges (electrons and holes) that are generated within the material itself. In semiconductors, electron-hole pairs are generated through various processes like thermal excitation or exposure to light. Intrinsic conduction is a fundamental property of semiconductors and is crucial for their electronic applications.

About Electronics
A p-n junction forms when p-type and n-type semiconductor regions meet, creating a depletion layer, barrier potential and rectifying action. The work covers forward and reverse bias, junction current, diode characteristics, and how a diode converts alternating current into pulsating direct current through half-wave and full-wave rectification.
