To solve the problem, we need to follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the number of dopant atoms (As) in the silicon crystal. Given that the concentration of silicon atoms is \(2.5 \times 10^{28} \, \text{atoms/m}^3\) and the doping concentration of arsenic (As) is 1 ppm (parts per million), we can calculate the number of arsenic atoms. 1 ppm means 1 arsenic atom in \(10^6\) silicon atoms. Therefore, the number of arsenic atoms can be calculated as: \[ ...
