Majority charge carriers in the N-type side of a semiconductor material are electrons, because N-type semiconductor is doped with a material with 5 valence electrons. Semiconductor materials have 4 valence electrons and hold tightly to 8, so there is a "loose" electron for every atom of dopant. Therefore most of the charge carriers available are electrons. IE, electrons are the majority charge carriers.
Minority charge carriers in N-type semiconductor are holes. Only a few holes (lack of an electron) are created by thermal effects, hence holes are the minority carriers in N-type material.
The situation is reversed in P-type semiconductor. A material having only 3 valence electrons is doped into the semiconductor. The semiconductor atoms have 4 valence electrons try to hold tightly to 8, so there is a virtual hole created by a "missing" electron in the valence orbit. This acts as if it were a positive charge carrier. Most of the charge carriers are these holes, therefore in P-type semiconductor holes are the majority charge carrier.
Again, reverse situation to minority charge carriers. Some electrons are loosened by thermal effects, they are the minority charge carriers in P-type semiconductor.

what is the procedural difference between minor theft and minor motoring offences
There is one major difference between these types of claims. When a person has two different insurance carriers, one of them is designated as the primary coverage and the other as the secondary. The primary insurance should be billed first and normally pays the bulk of the bill. The secondary insurance gets billed for the remainder of the bill which the primary insurance did not pay for.

There is no difference between a donkey and a burrow
Bipolar dc involves both majority carrier and minority carriers for conduction while unipolar requires only majority carriers or minority carriers during conduction. point of view based on electronics devices.
Majority > 50%, Minority < 50%
Majority government is when the province has more then half of the house of commons, and Minority government has less then half.
Majority government is when the province has more then half of the house of commons, and Minority government has less then half.
FOR n-type semiconductor the majority charge carrier is electron and for n-type semiconductor it is hole. the majority and minority charge carrier is result of free electron and hole. the majority charge carrier is responsible for transport of electron.
Majority means it is major, so there's more. Minority means it's minor, meaning there's less.
The primary difference is that a Democracy is run by the majority, while a Republic is run by the law. A Republic prevents the majority from abusing the minority.
Majority just means most, dissenting is those that disagree, but can be majority or minority depending on if group larger or smaller than one you are speaking about
The patterns of interaction between majority and minority racial and ethnic groups varies between groups. Many majority groups will look down on minority groups as if they do not have equal rights.
A majority shareholder is one who owns more than 50% of a company's shares. A minority shareholder is one who owns less than 50% of a company's shares and lacks voting control.
As the difference between being belonging to the majority and to the minority. Refer to the related questions below.
Because in this device the resistance between two terminal respectively collector and emitter is changed by changing the base voltage that is it transfers the resistance between emitter and collector therefore it is called as TRANSISTOR. (TRANSFER OF RESISTOR)
