Choose correct graph of resistivity and temperature for semi-conductor material.
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
\(\rho =\frac{m}{ne^{2}\tau}\)
As the T increases the \(\tau\) decreases but n increases, but the n is dominant over \(\tau\). so the \(\rho\) decreases as the temperature increases.
So, the correct graph is option (C)
