Which of the following is unipolar transistor?

  • p-n-p transistor

  • n-p-n transistor

  • Field effect transistor

  • Point contact transistor

Solution

C.

Field effect transistor

In Field effect Transistor  ( FET ) there is only one type of charge for conduction from drain to source i.e either electrons ( n-channel FET ) or holes (P-channel FET). 

In NPN and PNP transistor both electron and holes take part in conduction. Hence they are bipolar Junction Transistor.

Point contact Transistor is also Bipolar Junction Transistor.
