With increase in temperature, the resistivity of a semiconductor _________ .
With increase in temperature, the resistivity of a semiconductor _________ .
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B decreases
A semiconductor starts conducting more as the temperature increases. This happens only when its resistance decreases. That is, as the temperature of the semiconductor increases, its resistivity also increases.
