Question
**Problem 1:**

Consider an n-type silicon for which the dopant concentration \( N_D = 10^{17} \, \text{cm}^{-3} \). Find the electron and hole concentrations at 360 K.

**Problem 2:**

For a silicon crystal doped with boron, what must \( N_A \) be if at \( T = 320 \, \text{K} \) the electron concentration drops below the intrinsic level by a factor of \( 10^5 \)?
