Question

What are the majority and minority carrier ? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

The majority charge carrierscarry most of the electric charge or electric current in the semiconductor. Hence,majority charge carriers are mainly responsible for electric current flow in the semiconductor. The charge carriers that are present in small quantity are calledminority charge carriers

Answer 2

Answer:

charged species which are responsible to carry majority charge and responsible for flow of current to a greater extent are called majority charge carrier (in N dipped electrons are majority charge carrier and holes are minority charge carrier)

charged species which are responsible to carry minority charge are called minority charge carrier
