Which non-metal has semi-conductor property?
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B Silicon
Silicon is a tetravalent metalloid. Pure silicon is used to produce silicon wafers in the semiconductor industry. Pure silicon is an intrinsic semiconductor as it conducts electron holes and increases electrical conductivity. Silicon is doped with other microelements to increas its conductivity. It is used in transistors, solar cells, semiconductor devices.
