MCQ
Holes are created when:
- AElectric discharge causes damage to semicondcutors.
- BThere are too many electrons.
- ✓A co$-$valent bond is broken due to thermal energy, the removal of one electron leaves a vacancy.
- DNone of these
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
A co$-$valent bond is broken due to thermal energy, the removal of one electron leaves a vacancy.
Holes are created when a co$-$valent bond is broken due to thermal energy. The removal of one electron leaves a vacancy known as a hole.

→Consider a block of conducting material ofresistivity '$\rho$' shown in the figure. Current '$I$' enters at '$A$' and leaves from '$D$'. We apply superp osition principle to find voltage '$\Delta V$ ' developed between '$B$' and '$C$'. The calculation is done in the following steps:
$(i)$ Take current '$I$' entering from '$A$' and assume it to spread over a hemispherical surface in the block.
$(ii)$ Calculatefield $E(r)$ at distance '$r$' from $A$ by using Ohm's law $E = \rho j$, where j is the current per unit area at '$r$'.
(iii) From the '$r$' dependence of $E(r)$, obtain the potential $V(r)$ at $r$.
(iv) Repeat $(i), (ii)$ and $(iii)$ for current '$I$' leaving '$D$' and superpose results for '$A$' and '$D$'.
