The conductivity of a semiconductor increases with an increase in temperature,
because:
1. number density of free current carries increases
2. relaxation time increases
3. both number density of carries and relaxation time increase
4. number density of current carriers increases, relaxation time decreases but the effect of decrease in relaxation time is much less than the increase in number density

In the figure given below, assuming the diodes to be ideal,
            
1. \(D_1\) is forward biased and \(D_2\) is revers-biased and hence current flows from \(A\) to \(B\).
2. \(D_2\) is forward biased and \(D_1\) is reverse-biased and hence no current flows from \(B\) to \(A\) and vice-versa.
3. \(D_1\) and \(D_2\) are both forward-biased and hence current flows from \(A\) to \(B\).
4. \(D_1\) and \(D_2\) are both reverse-biased and hence no current flows from \(A\) to \(B\) and vice-versa.
