1 TRIAL KEDAH 05 ESSAY SECTION B. (a) What is the meaning of semiconductor? [ mark] (b) Diagram 0. shows a boron (B) atom embedded among silicon (Si) atoms in a semiconductor. In Diagram 0. the embedded atom is phosphorus (P). (i) Diagram 0. Diagram 0. What is the purpose of doping a semiconductor? [ mark] (ii) Compare the type of semiconductor produced by the doping of a pure semiconductor like silicon with boron and phosphorus. Relate the type of semiconductor with the majority charge found in it. [4 marks]

2 (c) Diagram 0.3 shows the input signal and output signal of a circuit connected to a diode. Diagram 0.3 Explain how the output signal is produced. [4 marks] (d) Diagram 0.4 shows an electronic circuit where a bulb lights up when the surrounding is dark. You are require to modify the circuit in Diagram 0.4 so that a bell will ring when the surrounding is hot. You are given the following components to modify the circuit. Component Symbol Thermistor Diagram 0.4 Resistor Bell Draw the new circuit and explain how it works. [0 marks] TOTAL 0 marks
