To explain: The term semiconductor.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Semiconductor is a class of materials which are insulators at low temperature. As the temperature increases they start
Silicon and germanium are common examples of semiconductors. Semiconductors are mainly divided into two categories, one is intrinsic semiconductor and other extrinsic semiconductors. A semiconductor in its pure form is known as intrinsic semiconductor . If impurity is added to a pure semiconductor then it becomes extrinsic semiconductor.
