From the following, choose the element for impurity atoms with which pure silicon should be doped to make it a p-type semiconductor: |
Arsenic Boron Phosphorous Antimony |
Boron |
The correct answer is Option (2) → Boron For a p-type semiconductor, silicon must be doped with a trivalent impurity (3 valence electrons). And, among the given options, Boron is trivalent. Answer: Boron |
