In a Si semiconductor sample of 200 am length at 600 K the hole concentration as a' function of the sample length follows a quadratic relation of the form p (x) = 1 x1015x, at equilibrium the value of the electric field at 160 jum will be: O 1.935 V/cm O 3.250 V/cm O 5805 V/cm O 55.56 V/cm O 6.450 V/cm
Since the Fermi energy level of zinc is EF = 9.47 eV, what is the number of electrons per unit energy per unit volume at this energy level? Since the resistivity of zinc is 5.90 x 10^-8 ohm.m, calculate the average time interval between collisions of electrons.
Silicon atoms with a concentration of 7× 1010 cm3 are added to gallium arsenide GaAs at T = 400 K. Assume that the silicon atoms act as fully ionized dopant atoms and that 15% of the concentration added replaces gallium atoms to free electrons and 85% replaces arsenic to create holes. Use the following parameters for GaAs at T=300 K: N. = 4.7 x 1017cm-3 and N, = 7 × 1018cm-3. The bandgap is E, = 1.42 eV and it is constant over the temperature range. The hole concentration?
