From the following, choose the element for impurity atoms with which pure silicon should be doped to make it a p-type semiconductor:
- A Arsenic
- B Boron
- C Phosphorous
- D Antimony
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Boron
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Boron As a trivalent atom, it creates a vacancy or "hole" in the crystal lattice because it lacks one electron to complete four covalent bonds with neighboring silicon atoms. These positive "holes" are the majority charge carriers in p-type materials.

In our body, cell growth and differentiation is highly controlled and regulated. In cancer cells, there is breakdown of these regulatory mechanisms. Cancerous cells just continue to divide giving rise to masses of cells called tumors. Benign tumors normally remain confined to their original location. The malignant tumors, on the other hand are a mass of proliferating cells. These cells actively divide and starve the normal cells by competing for vital nutrients. Cells sloughed from such tumors reach distant sites through blood, and wherever they get lodged in the body, they start a new tumor there. This property is called metastasis. Transformation of normal cells into cancerous cells may be induced by physical, chemical or biological agents called carcinogens.
