MCQ
The impurity atoms with which pure silicon may be doped to make it a p-type semiconductor are those of:
  • A
    Phosphorus.
  • B
    Boron.
  • C
    Antimony.
  • D
    Aluminium.

Answer

  1. Boron.

  1. Aluminium.

Explanation:

A p-type semiconductor is formed by doping an intrinsic semiconductor with a trivalent atom (atom having valency 3). As phosphorous and boron have three valence electrons, they can be doped with silicon to make a p-type semiconductor.
