IES 2014 Test-1 Solution:

1. (A) By increasing doping relaxation time is decreased because if more heavy material is doped

higher is the probability of collision and more carriers will collide with an ion in given time

& mean free time between collision is reduced so value of *

e&

m

so mobility value

will be reduced.

2. (B) In case of metal if temperature is () the number of electrons per unit volume will remain

same. Thermal speed will () and amplitude of atomic vibration will () due to that time

between successive collisions will decrease which will decrease mobility and conductivity

value will decreases.

3. (B) In case of heavily doped semiconductor, donor level is not in discrete form due to high value

of doping. In this case energy due to temperature will ignite internal interaction within ions

which will result in () in mobility & finally decrease in conductivity.

V. B have attractive force from nucleus & internal force from near by electrons so that

curvature of CB is smooth than valance band & due to this reason effective man of e is less

Ge:32 2,8,18,4

In case of Silicon Valance electrons are tightly attached while in Germanium these electrons

Germanium. If in case of Ge by 1ºC rise in temp conductivity will () around 5% and in Si it

17. (B) Photoconductor material should always be intrinsic.

For a photoconductor material should be always intrinsic so that there will be significant

change in the value of conductivity. Response time should be fast and dark conductivity is

also small.

18. (D) Zener occurs at less than 6 V and avalanche breakdown occurs > 6 V.

20. (B) Metal – SC diode :– metal and n-type semi-conductor

Here n-type will be +ve & metal will be –ve.

No depletion layer formation, no current due to metal to semi-conductor here delay due to

recombination is absent.

Since e plunge into metal with high energy so this is known as hot carrier diode.

It has in this case cut in voltage is smaller than normal diode & reverse current due to

thermionic is higher.

It works like ohmic contact & rectifying contact. If conduction is equal in both the direction

then it is k/a ohmic otherwise rectifying.

N-type :

(1) Ohmic m s s mor

(2) Rectifying s m

P-type :

(1) Ohmic s m

(2) Rectifying s m

Heavily doped semiconductor will behave like ohmic and lightly will behave as rectifying.

or anode current is reduced below holding value.
