Differentiate between intrinsic semiconductor and extrinsic semiconductors briefly.

Answer»

Following are the difference between intrinsic semiconductor and extrinsic semiconductors— Intrinsic Semiconductors

1. They are the crystals of pure elements like germanium and silicon.

2. Me = nh

3. The electrical conductivity of intrinsic semiconductor is law.

4. Resistivity is higher

Extrinsic Semiconductors

1. When some impurity is added in the intrinsic semiconductor, we get an extrinsic semiconductor.

2. Me  nh

3. Its electrical conductivity is high. 

4. Resistivity is lower.
