Q. By increasing the temperature, the specific resistance of a conductor and a semiconductor:

AIEEEAIEEE 2002Semiconductor Electronics: Materials Devices and Simple Circuits

Solution:

If we increase the temperature, the specific resistance (resistivity) of conductor increases while that of semiconductor decreases.
