Science

Which outcome characterizes an intrinsic semiconductor's behavior near absolute zero?

A)Electron flow completely ceases
B)Reduced thermal expansion coefficient value
C)Increased electrical noise generation
D)Enhanced reverse saturation current

💡 Explanation

Electron flow ceases because the band gap prevents electron excitation into the conduction band at low temperature. Therefore, it acts as insulator rather than generating noise or changing thermal properties under such extremely cold environments because thermal energy is negligible.
