Find the electron and hole mobilities, and the resistivity of intrinsic silicon at 300K. Is intrinsic silicon a semiconductor

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Resistivity = 231.481 K Ohm

Yes, Intrinsic Silicon is the semiconductor.

Explanation:

Solution:

At 300K:

Let suppose mobility of electron in intrinsic semiconductor = $M_{e}$

Mobility of electron in intrinsic semiconductor is:

$M_{e}$ = 1300 $cm^{2}$ /volt.sec

Let suppose mobility of hole in intrinsic semiconductor = $M_{h}$

$M_{h}$ = 500 $cm^{2}$ /volt.sec

We know that, intrinsic silicon semiconductor has equal number of holes and electrons. So,

At 300 K

Intrinsic Carrier Concentration = 1.5 x $10^{10}$ / $cm^{3}$ = C

And,

Conductivity of intrinsic Silicon is:

σ = C x ( $M_{h}$ + $M_{e}$ ) e

e = 1.6 x $10^{-19}$ C

So, plugging in the values, we get:

σ = C x ( $M_{h}$ + $M_{e}$ ) e

σ = 1.5 x $10^{10}$ x (500 + 1300) x 1.6 x $10^{-19}$

σ = 4.32 x $10^{-6}$

So, now we can find the resistivity.

Resistivity = 1/σ

Resistivity = 1/ 4.32 x $10^{-6}$

Resistivity = 231.481 K Ohm

Yes, Intrinsic Silicon is the semiconductor.

A group of students is measuring the change in momentum of an object. Which set of lab equipment would be most in measuring the

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The momentum of an object is defined as the mass of the object times the velocity of the object, as P = m*v.

So the equipment needed would be:

Something to measure the mass of the object, like a balance.

Something to measure the speed of the object, like a doppler radar, or a simpler thing may be a cronometer, with that you can measure the amount of time that the object needs to travel a given distance, and with that you can obtain the speed of the object.

Now you can notice that speed is different than velocity, this is true, velocity is a vector, so this has a direction, then you need something to fix the direction in which the object moves, in this way you can determine the velocity.

Why are such scientific advances still valuable?

Sergeu [11.5K]

Because the more advances made in the world means the more we can learn on how things work and how we can better the lives of humans and other species. If we didn't have scientific advancements we wouldn't have cell phones, electric, tv, car, computers, ect. We would still be living in Cave man era with clubs and horrible language skills.
