  1. A A- electrons ; B- protons
  2. B A- protons ; B- electrons
  3. C A- electrons ; B- holes
  4. D A- holes ; B- electrons
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) A- electrons ; B- holes

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Majority Carriers (A): In an n-type (negative-type) semiconductor, a pure semiconductor like Silicon is doped with pentavalent impurities (e.g., Phosphorus). These impurities provide extra electrons, which become the majority charge carriers. Minority Carriers (B): While…
