True
False
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Sometimes it can be useful also.


37.
In a degenerate n type semiconductor material, the Fermi level,
is in valence band
is in conduction band
is at the centre in between valence and conduction bands
is very near valence band
Answer: Option
Explanation:

This is due to high level of doping.


38.

0
Answer: Option
Explanation:


40.

Assertion (A): The reverse saturation current in a semiconductor diode is 4nA at 20°C and 32 nA at 50°C.

Reason (R): The reverse saturation current in a semiconductor diode doubles for every 10°C rise in temperature.

Both A and R are true and R is correct explanation of A
Both A and R are true but R is not a correct explanation of A
A is true but R is false
A is false but R is true
Answer: Option
Explanation:

At 20°C, 4 nA, at 30°C, 8 nA, at 40°C, 16 nA, at 50°C, 32 nA.
