The correct answer is option 1):(Enhancement MOSFET)

Concept:

  • A MOSFET (metal–oxide–semiconductor FET) is one kind of field-effect transistor with an insulated gate mainly used for amplifying or switching signals. 
  • This is used in Digital ICs.MOS ICs use enhancement MOSFETs exclusively.
  • The features of these MOSFETs are low power dissipation, simple manufacturing, and small geometry. So these features will make them used within integrated circuits
  • There is no pathway in between the drain (D) and source (S) of this MOSFET when no voltage is applied in between the gate & source terminals.
  • So, applying a voltage at gate-to-source will enhance the channel, making it capable of conducting current. This property is the main reason to call this device an enhancement-mode MOSFET.
