Question

What is the resistivity range for semiconductors?

Options

• \[10^{-6}\text{ to }10^{5}\ \mathrm{S}\cdot\mathrm{m}^{-1}\]

• \[10^{11}\text{ to }10^{19}\ \Omega\cdot\mathrm{m}\]

• \[10^{-8}\text{ to }10^{-2}\ \Omega\cdot\mathrm{m}\]

• \[10^{-5}\text{ to }10^{6}\ \Omega\cdot\mathrm{m}\]

Answer 1

Semiconductor resistivity ranges from \[10^{-5}\] to \[10^{6}\ \Omega\cdot\mathrm{m}\]. Its electrical behaviour depends on the availability of electrons and holes.
