The electron condactivety of a samiconductor increases `2480 nm` is incident on it . The hand gap in (eV) for the semicondactor is

A

`25 eV`

B

`1.1 eV`

C

`0.7 eV`

D

`0.5 eV`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Band gap = energy of photon of wavelength `2480 nm`
so,
`delta E = (hc)/(lambda) = ((6.63 xx 10^(-34) xx 3 xx 10^(8))/(2480 xx 10^(-9))) = (1)/(1.6 xx 10^(-19)) eV`
`= 0.5 eV`
