Intrinsic conduction is conduction in a pure semiconductor due to electrons moving from negative to positive and an equal number of holes moving in the opposite direction.

What are the advantages of intrinsic semiconductor?

due to the poor conduction at room temperature,the intrinsic semiconductor as such,is not useful in the electronic devices.hence,the current conduction capability of the intrinsic semi conductor should be increased. this can be achieved by adding a small amount of impurity to the intrinsic semi conductor

What portion of the cardiac conduction system has the fastest intrinsic rate?

The sinoatrial (SA) node has the fastest intrinsic rate in the cardiac conduction system, typically firing at a rate of 60-100 beats per minute in a healthy heart. It serves as the primary pacemaker of the heart, initiating each heartbeat by generating electrical impulses.


What is the effect of temperature on an intrinsic semiconductor?

An intrinsic semiconductor is basically a pure semiconductor, though some might argue that a small amount of doping can still yield an intrinsic semiconductor. In the crystal structure of this material, there are very few electrons crossing the band gap into the conduction band, and this stuff doesn't want to conduct much current. But as temperature increases, more electron-hole pairs will appear as electrons jump that band gap and take up places in the conduction band. And if you guessed that increasing temperature will permit the intrinsic semiconductor to conduct current flow a bit better, you'd be right. The intrinsic semiconductor has a positive temperature coefficient. More heat, more conduction under the same conditions.


What is the function of the intrinsic conduction system of the heart?

The intrinsic conduction system of the heart is responsible for initiating and coordinating the electrical impulses that regulate the heart's contractions. It includes specialized cardiac muscle cells that generate and conduct electrical signals to ensure the synchronized contraction of the heart muscle, allowing for efficient blood pumping.

What are the conditions for the fermi level to be exactly in the middle of the energy band gap of a semiconductor material?

For intrinsic semiconductors like silicon and germanium, the Fermi level is essentially halfway between the valence and conduction bands. You don't have to do anything; just keep the semiconductor intrinsic!


What is intrinsic concentration?

in an undoped semiconductor, the number of carrier available per unit volume for conduction is the intrinsic carrier concentration. These are the loosley bonded outermost electrons of the parent atom which can be freed at room temperature hence both type of carrier (n and p) are equally present in the specimen.
