Question

Intrinsic semiconductors at the absolute temperature

Answer 1

Answer:

An intrinsic semiconductor at 0 K, has electrons only in the valence band. Forbidden gap - 3 eV, as a result, electrons do not have sufficient energy to excite to the conduction band. Since there are no electrons in the conduction band, so it behaves as an insulator at 0 K.
