MHT CET · Physics · Semiconductors
The majority charge carriers in p-type and n-type semiconductor are respectively
- A holes and electrons
- B electrons and holes
- C electrons and electrons
- D holes and holes
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) holes and electrons
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The charge carriers that are present in large quantity are called majority charge carriers. In a \(p\)-type semiconductor, the majority charge carriers are the holes whereas in the \(n\)-type semiconductor, the majority charge carriers are the free electrons
