Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To explain why the conductivity of germanium crystals increases upon doping with gallium, we can break down the process step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Doping**: Doping is the process of adding impurities to a semiconductor to modify its electrical properties. In this case, gallium is the dopant being added to pure germanium. **Hint**: Remember that doping introduces foreign atoms into the crystal lattice, which can change the electrical characteristics of the material. ...
