To achieve N-type doping in germanium, a pentavalent (group 5) element is used. Most commonly arsenic is used, but it can be antimony, bismuth or phosphorous.

Answer:
Germanium crystal should be doped with a pentavalent impurity such as phosphorus (P), arsenic (As) or antimony (Sb). These atoms with one electron extra can donate it to the semiconductor to make it n-type
