To get a n-type semiconductor from silicon, it should be doped with a substance with valence__________.
To get a n-type semiconductor from silicon, it should be doped with a substance with valence__________.

(i) 2

(ii) 1

(iii) 3

(iv) 5

 

 

Correct Answer: (iv) 5

Explanation: The n – semiconductor type is formed by adding a small amount of Group-V such as phosphorus (P) or arsenic (As) to the internal semiconductor. Group V objects have five valence electrons per atom.
