Vedclass · Answer

(C) At absolute zero temperature $(T = 0 \ K)$,all valence electrons are tightly bound to their respective atoms in the crystal lattice.There is no thermal energy available to excite electrons from the valence band to the conduction band.Since there are no free charge carriers (electrons or holes) available for conduction,the intrinsic semiconductor behaves as a perfect insulator.
