Semiconductor Principles - Technical MCQs

Q1:

In "n" type material, majority carriers would be:

A holes

B dopants

C slower

D electrons

ANS:D - electrons

This is so because in the n type, the overall number of covalent bonds which can be formed is for which means another added electron can not form a bond which will be a free electron which will increase the number of electrons causing it to be a negative.
