Answer:

A neutral particle made of an electron and hole

Explanation:

Exciton

It is the combination of an electron and a hole ( hole refers to the vacancy of an electron ) . And , as both the electron and the hole have the same charge but the polarity is opposite , the combination will lead to a neutral compound , i.e. , Exciton have no charge and so neutral .

It is free to move in the nonmetallic crystal and since it charge less , it is difficult to detect it directly .
