Question

Why resistivity increases in terms of conductor and decreases in a semiconductor with the rise of temperature?

Answer 1

resistivity increases in conductors due to increase in temp. because when temp increases, velocity of free electrons increases and there is an increase in amplitude of vibration of metallic atoms which causes a kind of resistance.Thus resistance increases when temp increses.

This does not happen in semiconductors.thats why
