A semiconductor dopped with a donor impurity is

Draw the "energy bands" diagram for a (i) pure semiconductor (ii) insulator. How does the energy band, foe a pure semiconductor, get affected when this semiconductor is doped with an acceptor impurity donor impurity? Hence discuss why the 'holes' and the 'electrons' respectively, become the 'majority charge carriers' in these two cases.

In a semiconductor, the number density of intrinsic charge carriers at 27^@C is 1.5 xx 10^(16) // m^3 . If the semiconductor is doped with impurity atom, the hole density increase to 4.5 xx 10^(22)//m^3 . The electron density in the doped semiconductor is "_______" xx 10^(9)//m^3 .
