Find the extrinsic conductivity of germanium doped with indium to a concentration of 2xx10^(22)m^(-3), with antimony to a concentration of 5xx10^(21)m^(-3).

Answer»


SOLUTION :Since indium is a trivalent element, the indium impurity acts as an acceptor and produces hole-type conductivity. Knowing the CONCENTRATION of holes and their MOBILITY, we obtain `gamma=en_(+)b_(+)`. Antimony is a pentavalent element, so the antimony impurity acts as a DONOR. The electric conductivity is `gamma=en_(-)b_(-)`.
