Chapter 10, Problem 66E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

To making of n-type semiconductor and p-type semiconductor using $\text{GaAs}$ should be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Semiconductor:

The electrical conductivity of the substance increases when the temperature increases.

In normal temperature conductivity of the substance is equal to insulator.

n-type semiconductor:

The host substance is doped by more valence electrons containing substance give n-type semiconductor.

The conductivity of the host substance is increases when the valence electrons containing substance are doped.

p-type semiconductor:

The host substance is doped by less valence electrons containing substance give p-type semiconductor.
