Question

What is the type of the semiconductor, for the energy band diagram shown in the figure?

• A. N-type semiconductor
• B. P-type semiconductor
• C. Intrinsic semiconductor
• D. Both $N$ and $P$ type semiconductors

Answer 1

The correct option is D Both $N$ and $P$ type semiconductors

The $N$ and $P$ semiconductor charge the electrons and carry out minority carries.

This type of semiconductors is created by doping the intrinsic semiconductor.

A common dopant is silicon and carries out semiconductor.

So, it contains both the $N$ and $P$ type-semi-conductors

Hence, the option $D$ is the correct answer.
