A semiconductor is known to have an electron concentration of cm-3 and a hole concentration of cm-3. The semiconductor is:
1. n-type
2. p-type
3. intrinsic
4. insulator
If a small amount of aluminium is added to the silicon crystal:
1. | its resistance decreases. |
2. | it becomes a p-type semiconductor. |
3. | there will be fewer free electrons than holes in the semiconductor. |
4. | All of these are correct. |
Pure Si at 500 K has equal number of electron and hole concentration of Doping by indium increases to The doped semiconductor is of:

2. | \(n_{e}=2.5\times10^{23}~m^{-3}\) | p-type with electron concentration
3. | \(n_{e}=2.5\times10^{10}~m^{-3}\) | n-type with electron concentration
4. | \(n_{e}=5\times10^{9}~m^{-3}\) | p-type with electron concentration
