Pure Si at 300 K has equal electron `(n_e)` and hole `(n_(h))` concentration of `2.xx10^(16)` per `m^(3)`. Doping by indium increases `n_(h)` to `4xx10^(22) ` per `m^(3)`. Calculate `n_(e)` in the doped silicon.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

For a doped semi-conductor in thermal equilebrium `n_(e)h_(h)=n_(i)` (law of mass action)
`n_(theta)=(n_(i)^(2))/(h_(h))=((1.5xx10^(16))^(2))/(3xx10^(22))=7.5xx10^(9)m^(-3)`
