Match the List I with List II List I List II A Intrinsic Semiconductor I Fermi-level near valence band B n-type semiconductor II Fermi-level at middle of valence and conduction band C p-type semiconductor III Fermi-level near conduction band D Metals IV Fermi-level inside conduction band Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

(A) The Fermi-level in an intrinsic semiconductor is nearly midway between the conductive and valence band.So, $(A)\rightarrow II$. (B) In the case of n-type semiconductor, the Fermi level is present just below the conduction band. So, $(B)\rightarrow III$. (C) Fermi level in a p-type semiconductor lies close to the top of the valence band. So, $(C)\rightarrow I$ (D) In metals and semimetals the Fermi level lies inside at least one band i.e., inside conduction band. So, $(D)\rightarrow IV$.
