AI Generated Solution

To solve the question, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Draw the Energy Band Diagram of an n-Type Semiconductor 1. **Identify the Energy Bands**: In a semiconductor, there are two main energy bands: the conduction band (CB) and the valence band (VB). 2. **Position of Fermi Level**: In an n-type semiconductor, the Fermi level (E_F) is located closer to the conduction band than to the valence band due to the presence of extra electrons contributed by donor impurities. 3. **Label the Diagram**: - Draw the conduction band at a higher energy level. ...
