Question

A Ge specimen is doped with Al.  The concentration of acceptor atom is 1021atoms/m3. Given that the intrinsic concentration of electron hole pairs is 1019/m3, the concentration of electrons in the specimen is

Moderate
Solution

For extrinsic semiconductor , 

ni2=nenh 

10192=ne1021

ne=1017/m3
