Chapter 21.5, Problem 21.6P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The type of semiconductor when germanium gets doped has to be identified.  Further the reason for greater electrical conductivity of doped germanium has to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Semiconductor: A material which can conducts electricity in range between a metal and an insulator is known as semiconductor.  Addition of small amount of impurities increases conductivity of semiconductor and the process is known as doping.  n-type and p-type are two types of doped semiconductors.

n-type: This is a type of doped semiconductor in which many free electrons are present in conduction band.

p-type: This is a type of doped semiconductor in which holes are present in conduction band.
