If we mix a pentavalent impurity in the crystal lattice of germinium the type of semiconductor formed will be:

A

p-type

B

n-type

C

Both a and b

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
On adding a pentavalent impurity with germanium we get, n-type of semiconductors because excess of electrons is responsible for conduction .
