DRDO 2009 solved answers Part-1

The students appeared in DRDO (Defence Research and Development Organisation) SET-2009 ( 6th september) can get some of the answers here for verification. Please let me know your comments.
1. At room temperature, which one of the following band gap energy corresponds to that of a semiconductor?
a. Eg = 0ev b. Eg = 1.2ev c. Eg = 5ev d. Eg = 9ev
Ans: 1.2ev
2. The diffusion constant and mobility for electrons in a semiconductor material at a given temperature are 20 cm2/s and 1600 cm2/V-s, respectively. The thermal voltage VT for a diode made of this material at the same temperature is
a. 125mv b. 32mv c.12.5mv d. 3.2mv
Ans: Given: diffusion constant = 20 cm2/s and mobility for electrons=1600 cm2/V-s
we know that, diffusion constant/mobility for electrons=VT
So 12.5mv is the answer
