Calculate the position of the Fermi level relative to the intrinsic Fermi Level. (b) A drift current density of 75 A/cm² is required in a device using p-type silicon when an electric field of 120 V/em is applied. Calculate the required impurity doping concentration to achieve this specification. (c) In an n-type GaAs semiconductor at T 300 K, the electron concentration varies linearly from 7 x 1017 /cm³ to 1 × 1018 /cm³ over a distance of 0.10 cm. Calculate the electron diffusion current density given that the electron diffusion coefficient Dn is 225 cm³/s.

Can I compare the Hall coefficient of a semiconductor I am using to another sample of the same element and type (p-type)? I have read that the Hall coefficient is dependent on the dimensions of the sample so in this case, it wouldn't be comparable. I would appreciate any guidance as i am still unsure.
