Question

State whether given statement is True or False
The majority charge carriers in $p$-type semiconductor are electrons.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

In p-type semiconductors, trivalent impurities such as boron, aluminum or gallium is added to an intrinsic semiconductor which creates deficiencies of valence electrons,called "holes". Therefore, holes are the majority charge carriers.
