Question

name the semiconductor obtained when boron is added as an impurity to silicon

Answer 1

Hey here is your answer

1)Boron has atomic number 5. It has 3 electrons in its outer orbit, i.e. 3 valence electrons.

2)Elements with 3 valence electrons are used for p-type doping

3) and 5-valence electrons for n-type doping.

4)Hence when Boron is doped with Silicon, it creates p-type doping.
