Answer 2

Answer:

pure semiconductor

Explanation:

A semiconductor is that type of material whose band gap energy lies between the bandgap energy of conductor and bandgap energy of insulator. Silicon is one of the examples of the semiconductor. The semiconductor can be classified into two categories on the basis of their purity:

(1) intrinsic semiconductor

(2) Extrinsic semiconductor.

An intrinsic semiconductor is a type of semiconductor in which no impurity is present. To increase the conductivity of the semiconductor we add some impurity to the intrinsic semiconductor.
