What effect do added impurities have on semiconductor conductivity?

It is called as DOPING. Doping is the process in which you add an impurity to a pure semiconductor to increase its conductivity. While doping is done, crystal structure of semiconductor is not disturbed.


How are N-type semiconductor used in semiconductor diode?

p-type semiconductor is obtained by carrying out a process of doping that is by adding a certain type of atoms to the semiconductor in order to increase the number of the free charge carriers.


What are the differences between metal semiconductor and insulator?

Metal is a good conductor of electricity due to the presence of free electrons, while semiconductor has conductivity in between metal and insulator and its conductivity can be controlled by doping. Insulator has very low conductivity as it lacks free electrons for conduction.


Warming up your body temperature while cooling down your body temperature. A.increases decreases B.decreases increases C.regulates restricts D.stimulates stops?

increases, decreases


What happens to the velocity as the height increases?

As height increases, the velocity generally decreases due to the effect of gravity. This is because potential energy increases while kinetic energy decreases, resulting in a slower velocity.


What decreases an asset account credt or debit?

Assets has debit balance as normal balance so debit balance increases it while credit balance decreases it.


When the freuency of a wave traveling at constant speed increases what decreases?

As the frequency of a wave increases while traveling at a constant speed, the wavelength decreases. This is because the speed of a wave is determined by the product of its frequency and wavelength, so if one increases while the other remains constant, the other must decrease to maintain a constant speed.


Why do extrinsic semiconductor behave as good conductors?

we know that relation in semiconductor is conductivity proportional to temp especially in extrinsic semiconductor holes or electrons are charge carriers . in extrinsic semiconductor when temp is increased then the energy of charge carriers also increases. now kinetic energy equall to [ (1/2) m v^2 ] in this M is constant this implies energy prop to square of velocity therefore if conductivity of charge carriers increases while increasing of temperature


When supply decreases and demand remains the same equilibrium price will..and equilibrium quantity will..?

Price decreases while the quantity increases...i think!!!I am improving this answer because this guy's answer is wrong. If supply decreases while demand remains the same price will go up while quantity goes down.


What is a re-dox reaction?

A reaction in which electrons have been transferred from one atom to another .


Why you only use 5th or 3rd group element for doping?

I presume that we are here talking about a silicon semiconductor. The point of using a group 3 or a group 5 element is to use something that does not interfere too much with the crystal structure of silicon, but that has an extra electron for n-type doping, or absence of an electron for p-type doping. Thus for p-type doping we would use aluminium or gallium or scandium, because each of these has only 3 valence electrons instead of 4, while for n-type doping we would use phosphorus or arsenic or antimony, because these are elements with 5 valence electrons.


What happen to atoms in an oxidation-reduction reaction?
