Practicing Success
If a small amount of antimony is added to germanium crystal |
it becomes a p-type semiconductor the antimony becomes an acceptor atom there will be more free electrons than holes in the semiconductor its resistance is increased |
there will be more free electrons than holes in the semiconductor |
When small amount of antimony (pentavalent) is added to germanium crystal then crystal becomes n-type semiconductor. Therefore, there will be more free electrons than holes in the semiconductor. |
