The number of silicon atoms per m^(3) is...

The number of silicon atoms per `m^(3) is 5xx10^(28)`. This is doped simultaneously with `5xx10^(22)` atoms per `m^(3)` of Arsenic and `5xx10^(20) per m^(3)` atoms of indium. Calculate the number of electrons and holes. Given that `n_(i)=1.5xx10^(16)m^(-3)`. Is the material n-type or p-type?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to calculate the number of electrons (n_e) and holes (n_h) in the doped silicon and determine if the material is n-type or p-type. ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Number of silicon atoms, \( N_{Si} = 5 \times 10^{28} \, m^{-3} \) - Number of arsenic atoms (donors), \( N_{As} = 5 \times 10^{22} \, m^{-3} \) - Number of indium atoms (acceptors), \( N_{In} = 5 \times 10^{20} \, m^{-3} \) - Intrinsic carrier concentration, \( n_i = 1.5 \times 10^{16} \, m^{-3} \) ...
