    For a p-type semiconductor, which of the
    following statements is true ?
    (1) Electrons are the majority carriers and
    trivalent atoms are the dopants.
    (2) Holes are the majority carriers and
    trivalent atoms are the dopants.
    (3) Holes are the majority carriers and
    pentavalent atoms are the dopants.
    (4) Electrons are the majority carriers and
    pentavalent atoms are the dopants.
    digAnsr:   2
    Ans : ( 2 )
    Sol. In p-type semiconductor, an intrinsic
    semiconductor is doped with trivalent
    impurities, that creates deficiencies of
    valence electrons called holes which are
    majority charge carriers.
