$A$ pure semiconductor crystal has $8 \times 10^{28} \text{ atoms/m}^3$. It is doped with a $2 \text{ ppm}$ concentration of pentavalent atoms. The number of holes formed in the semiconductor crystal is (Intrinsic carrier concentration,$n_i = 1 \times 10^{16} \text{ m}^{-3}$).

$P$-type semiconductors are made by adding which impurity element?

$A$ crystal of intrinsic silicon at room temperature has a carrier concentration of $1.6 \times 10^{16} / m^3$. If the donor concentration level is $4.8 \times 10^{20} / m^3$,then the concentration of holes in the semiconductor is

In $n$-type semiconductor,electrons are majority charge carriers,but it does not show any negative charge. The reason is:
