If $N_A$ is the number density of acceptor atoms added and $N_D$ is the number density of donor atoms added to a semiconductor,and $n_e$ and $n_h$ are the number density of electrons and holes in it,then:

  • A
    $n_e = N_D, n_h = N_A$
  • B
    $n_e = N_A, n_h = N_D$
  • C
    $n_e + N_D = n_h + N_A$
  • D
    $n_e + N_A = n_h + N_D$
