In which of the following statements, the obtained impure semiconductor is of \(p\)-type?

  1. A Germanium is doped with bismuth
  2. B Silicon is doped with antimony
  3. C Germanium is doped with gallium
  4. D Silicon is doped with phosphorus
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Germanium is doped with gallium

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

A p-type semiconductor is obtained by the dopping of a trivalent atom. Gallium is trivalent element, so germanium is doped with gallium.
