Question

name the type of semiconductor obtained when silicon is doped with boron

Answer 1

Boron has atomic number 5. It has 3 electrons in its outer orbit, i.e. 3 valence electrons. Elements with 3 valence electrons are used for p-type doping and 5-valence electrons for n-type doping. Hence when Boron is doped with Silicon, it creates p-type doping.

Answer 2

A p-type Semiconductor
