Non-stoichiometric cuprous oxide. `Cu_(2)O` can be perpared in laboratory. In this oxide, copper-to-oxygen ratio is slightly less than 2 : 1. can you account for the fact that this substance is a p-type semiconductors?

Select the correct statement, for non stoichiometric cuprous oxide Cu_(1.8)O .

Statement-1 : At a fixed temperature, silicon will have a minimum conductivity when it has a smaller acceptor doping. Statement-2 : The conductivity of an intrinsic semiconductor is slightly higher than that of a lightly doped p-type semiconductor.
