The conductivity of semiconductor increases with increase in temperature because
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Due to increase in temperature bonds break which liberates large number of holes and electrons (charge carriers). Relaxation time too decreases but its effect is much less.
