Question

A Ge specimen is doped with Al. The concentration of acceptor atom is $10^{20} a t o m s / m^{3}$ . Given that the intrinsic concentration of electron hole pairs is $10^{17} / m^{3}$ , the concentration of electrons in the specimen is

Moderate

A

$10^{17} / m^{3}$
B

$10^{14} / m^{3}$
C

$10^{10} / m^{3}$
D

$10^{16} / m^{3}$

Solution

$F o r e x t r i n s i c s e m i c o n d u c t o r,$
$\begin{array}{l} {n_{i}}^{2} = n_{e} n_{h} \end{array}$
$\begin{array}{l} \Rightarrow {(10^{17})}^{2} = n_{e} 10^{20} \\ \Rightarrow n_{e} = 10^{14} / m^{3} \end{array}$
