Resistivity of a pure semiconductors at absolute zero is

Question

Resistivity of a pure semiconductors at absolute zero is (A) Zero (B) Infinity (C) Same as that of conductos at room temperature (D) Same as that of insulators at room temperature

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

The electricity conductivity of a semiconductor at 0K is zero. hence resistivity (= 1/electrical conductivity) is infinity.

Q. Resistivity of a pure semiconductors at absolute zero is

Zero

Infinity

Same as that of conductos at room temperature

Same as that of insulators at room temperature

The electricity conductivity of a semiconductor at 0K is zero. hence resistivity (= 1/electrical conductivity) is infinity.
