In semiconductors at a room temperature

The conductivity of an intrinsic semiconductor depends on temperature as (sigma)=(sigma_0)e^(-Delta E//2kT), where (sigma_0) is a constant. Find the temperature at which the conductivity of an intrinsic germanium semiconductor will be double of its value at T=300 K .Assume that the gap for germanium is 0.650 eV and remains constant as the temperature is increased.
