Which one of the following statements is false?

  1. Pure Si doped with trivalent impurities gives a p-type semiconductor.
  2. Majority carriers in a n-type semiconductor are holes.
  3. Minority carriers in a p-type semiconductor are electrons.
  4. The resistance of intrinsic semiconductor decreases with increase of temperature.

Answer

(2) Majority carriers in a n-type semiconductor are holes.

Solution

(1) True: a trivalent dopant (B, Al, In) creates holes ⇒ p-type.

(2) False: in an n-type semiconductor (pentavalent dopant) the majority carriers are electrons; holes are the minority carriers.

(3) True: in a p-type semiconductor holes are majority and electrons are minority carriers.

(4) True: with rise in temperature more electron–hole pairs are generated, so the resistance of an intrinsic semiconductor decreases.

Answer: (2)
