Doping Se with B would produce a(n)__________ semiconductor with __________ conductivity compared to pure Se.
A)p-type,increased
B)n-type,decreased
C)n-type,increased
D)p-type,decreased
E)intrinsic,identical

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Doping selenium (Se), which is a semiconductor, with boron (B) introduces holes as charge carriers because boron has one less valence electron than selenium. This creates a p-type semiconductor. The introduction of these holes effectively increases the conductivity compared to pure selenium, as there are more charge carriers available for electrical conduction.
