Solution

The correct option is D Indium and aluminium
The N-type impurity loses its extra valence electron easily when added to a semiconductor material,and in so doing, increases the conductivity of the material by contributing a free electron. This type of impurity has 5 valence electrons.So for type doping we will use Indium . For P type doping we use atom with valence electron , that's aluminium
