11. What effect does temperature rise have on semiconductors,why is it different from conductors?
Explain in detail.
12. The quantum mechanics states that there is not anyinteraction between an accelerating electron
and atoms in a perfect crystal. So all of the free electrons shouldaccelerate as long as the electric
field is applied, which would cause an electric current that iscontinuously increasing with time.
But as you know, a current reaches a constant value. Explainwhy.
