Question: 1 -

The most suitable material for making an LDR (light dependent resistor) is a semiconductor material having

Options:
  1. Eg = hv

  2. Eg >> hv

  3. Eg << hv

  4. Eg > hv

  5. Answer:

    Eg << hv

    Solution:

    For operation of LDR , Eg << hv

Question: 3 -

Which of the following is true for silicon and Germanium ?

Options:
  1. Silicon is indirect band gap while germanium is direct band gap

  2. Both are indirect band gap

  3. Silicon is direct band gap while germanium is indirect band gap

  4. Both are direct band gap material

  5. Answer:

    Both are indirect band gap

    Solution:

    Both are indirect band gap . So can't be used for LED
