Why do Ge and Si are semiconductor?

Answers

Answered by itzshrutiBasrani

Explanation:

Germanium. Each has four valence electrons, but germanium will at a given temperature have more free electrons and a higher conductivity. Silicon is by far the more widely used semiconductor for electronics, partly because it can be used at much higher temperatures than germanium.
