Questions  

In pure silicon at 300 K the electron and hole concentration is each equal to 1.5×1016m3 When doped with indium, the hole concentration increases to 4.5×1022m3 What is the electron concentration in doped silicon?

a
3×109m−3
b
4×109m−3
c
5×109m−3
d
6×109m−3

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Given ni=1.5×1016m−3 and nh=4.5×1022m−3  Now, we know that nenh=ni2 or ne=ni2nh=1.5×101624.5×1022=5.0×109m−3
