A `P`-type semiconductor has acceptor levels `57 meV` above the valence band. The maximum wavelength of light required to create a hole is (Planck's constant `h=6.6xx10^(-34)J-s`)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`E=(hc)/(lamda)rArr lamda=(hc)/(E)=(6.62xx10^(-34)xx3xx10^(5))/(57xx10^(-3)xx1.6xx10^(-19))=217100 Å`
