when the electrical conductivity of a semiconductor is due to the breaking of its covalent bonds, then the semiconductor is said to be

Options

A. Donor
B. Acceptor
C. Intrinsic
D. Extrinsic

Answer

C

Explanation

`underset("semiconductor") ("Intrinsic") to` Conductivity is due to the breaking of covalent bond `underset("semiconductor") ("Extrinsic") to` Conductivity is due to the breaking of covalent bond and excess of charge carriers due to impurity.
