How many types of flow are there in a semiconductor?
A. 0
B. 1
C. 2
D. 3
E. None of the above
Answer: Option B
Solution (By Examveda Team)
The correct answer is C: 2Here's why:
In a semiconductor, there are two main types of charge carriers that contribute to current flow:
1. Electrons: These are negatively charged particles.
2. Holes: These are the absence of electrons, effectively acting as positive charge carriers. Think of them as bubbles in a liquid; when a bubble moves, it's the liquid moving around it that creates the bubble's apparent movement.
Therefore, there are two types of flow (electron flow and hole flow) in a semiconductor.
The answer should be two one is electron flow and the other is a hole flow
the answer must be 2: electron flow and hole flow
