BSilicate

CSilicon dioxide

DSilica

Answer:

A. Silicon

Read Explanation:

  • Silicon atomic number is 14

  • Valancy is 4

  • Semiconductors can be broadly classified into Intrinsic and Extrinsic Semiconductors

  • Intrinsic Semiconductors start conducting at temperatures above the room temperature, developing important electronic devices using these can pose a problem

  • This led to a need for improving the conductivity of intrinsic semiconductors
