1In CHSE +2 Electronics, pure silicon at room temperature is classified as an:
A.Intrinsic semiconductor with thermally generated electron–hole pairs
B.Perfect metal with zero band gap
C.Insulator with no free carriers ever
D.Superconductor below critical temperature only
Explanation: Intrinsic semiconductors have a filled valence band and empty conduction band separated by a modest gap; thermal energy generates equal electrons and holes.
2Pentavalent impurities such as phosphorus, when added to pure silicon, produce:
A.A perfect metal with resistivity lower than copper
B.n-type extrinsic semiconductor with electrons as majority carriers
C.p-type semiconductor with holes as majority carriers
D.An insulator by filling the valence band completely
Explanation: Donor (Group-V) atoms contribute extra electrons, creating n-type material with electron majority carriers.
3Trivalent boron doping of germanium creates:
A.Intrinsic material with n = p exactly always
B.A metal-like free-electron gas only
C.p-type semiconductor with holes as majority carriers
D.n-type semiconductor with electrons as majority carriers
Explanation: Acceptors create hole majority carriers; the material is p-type extrinsic semiconductor.
4The forbidden energy gap of a typical insulator compared with a semiconductor is:
A.Exactly zero as in metals
B.Always smaller than in semiconductors
C.Negative, allowing free band overlap
D.Much larger, so very few carriers are thermally excited at room temperature
Explanation: Insulators have large Eg (several eV); semiconductors have smaller Eg (~1 eV class for Si/Ge).
5In a reverse-biased PN junction, the width of the depletion layer:
A.Increases and minority-carrier reverse current remains very small until breakdown
B.Disappears completely so current becomes huge ohmic
C.Becomes zero and the diode shorts like a wire
D.Reverses polarity of majority carriers only
Explanation: Reverse bias widens the depletion region and supports only a small reverse saturation current until breakdown.
6The potential barrier of a silicon PN junction is typically of order:
A.About 100 V for every commercial diode
B.About 0.7 V (silicon) and lower (~0.3 V) for germanium
C.Exactly 12 V like a car battery
D.Zero for all semiconductors at room temperature
Explanation: Built-in barrier is ~0.7 V for Si and ~0.3 V for Ge at room temperature (order-of-magnitude values taught at +2).
7A Zener diode is primarily designed to operate in:
A.The active region of a BJT
B.Open-circuit microwave resonance only
C.Controlled reverse breakdown as a voltage reference/regulator
D.Forward bias only as a high-current rectifier
Explanation: Zener (and avalanche) reverse breakdown is used for nearly constant reverse voltage regulation.
8An LED emits light when:
A.Strongly reverse biased into Zener breakdown only
B.Used as a pure ohmic resistor with no junction
C.Held exactly at zero bias with no current
D.Forward biased so injected carriers recombine and release photons
Explanation: Forward injection and radiative recombination produce visible/IR photons in LEDs.
9A photodiode is normally operated:
A.In reverse bias so photocurrent rises with incident light
B.Only as a series heater resistor
C.In hard saturation like a mechanical switch forever
D.Without any electrical connection
Explanation: Reverse-biased photodiodes convert incident light into reverse current proportional to intensity (idealized +2 model).
10In a half-wave rectifier with sinusoidal input Vm, the peak reverse voltage across the diode (ideal) is approximately:
A.0
B.Vm
C.2Vm
D.Vm/2
Explanation: In basic half-wave analysis the diode sees peak inverse voltage about Vm (ideal transformer secondary peak).
