In pure silicon,the electron-hole concentration at $T = 300 \ K$ is $7 \times 10^{15} \ m^{-3}$. Antimony is added as an impurity to silicon at a rate of $1$ atom per $10^7 \ Si$ atoms. Assume that half of the impurity atoms contribute their electrons to the conduction band. Calculate the factor by which the number of charge carriers increases. Given: the number density of silicon atoms is $5 \times 10^{28} \ m^{-3}$.

If $n_{e}$ and $n_{h}$ are concentrations of electrons and holes in a semiconductor,then the intrinsic carrier concentration $(n_i)$ in thermal equilibrium is

For pure $Ge$,the intrinsic carrier density is $10^{19} \ m^{-3}$. If donor impurity is added with a density of $10^{23} \ m^{-3}$,what will be the hole density (in $m^{-3}$)?

If the ratio of electron and hole currents in a semiconductor is $\frac{7}{4}$ and the ratio of drift velocities of electrons and holes is $\frac{5}{4}$, then the ratio of concentrations of electrons and holes will be
