In order to fabricate n-type semiconductor, the impurity elements used are

  1. A acceptor atoms like Aluminum, Indium.
  2. B donor atoms like Phosphorous, Arsenic.
  3. C carbon as it has four valence electrons.
  4. D semiconductor atoms like Silicon and Germanium.
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) donor atoms like Phosphorous, Arsenic.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

To fabricate an \(n\)-type semiconductor, a pure semiconductor (like Silicon) is doped with pentavalent impurities (elements with 5 valence electrons) such as Phosphorus or Arsenic. These are called donor atoms because they provide an extra "free" electron to the crystal…
