Note : Questions number 29 to 30 are Case Study based questions. Read
the following paragraph and answer the questions that follow.
A pure semiconductor like Ge or Si, when doped with a small amount of
suitable impurity, becomes an extrinsic semiconductor. In thermal
equilibrium, the electron and hole concentration in it are related to the
concentration of intrinsic charge carriers. A p-type or n-type
semiconductor can be converted into a p-n junction by doping it with
suitable impurity. Two processes, diffusion and drift take place during
formation of a p-n junction. A semiconductor diode is basically a p-n
junction with metallic contacts provided at the ends for the application of
an external voltage. A p-n junction diode allows currents to pass only in
one direction when it is forward biased. Due to this property, a diode is
widely used to rectify alternating voltages, in half-wave or full wave
configuration. 4x1=4

(i) At a given temperature, the number of intrinsic charge carriers in a

4 (30) ‘A lens is a transparent optical medium bounded by two surfaces; at least
one of which should be spherical. Applying the formula of image formation
by a single spherical surface successively at the two surfaces of a thin
lens, a formula known as lens maker's formula and hence the basic lens
formula can be obtained. The focal length (or power) of a lens depends on
the radii of its surfaces and the refractive index of its material with
respect to the surrounding medium. The refractive index of a material
depends on the wavelength of light used. Combination of lenses helps us
to obtain diverging or converging lenses of desired power and
magnification. 4x1=4
