Assertion: The number of electrons in a $p-$type silicon semiconductor is less than the number of electrons in a pure silicon semiconductor at room temperature.
Reason: It is due to the law of mass action.

If the ratio of the concentration of electrons to that of holes in a semiconductor is $\frac{7}{5}$ and the ratio of currents is $\frac{7}{4}$,then what is the ratio of their drift velocities?

In pure silicon,the electron-hole concentration at $T = 300 \ K$ is $7 \times 10^{15} \ m^{-3}$. Antimony is added as an impurity to silicon at a rate of $1$ atom per $10^7 \ Si$ atoms. Assume that half of the impurity atoms contribute their electrons to the conduction band. Calculate the factor by which the number of charge carriers increases. Given: the number density of silicon atoms is $5 \times 10^{28} \ m^{-3}$.

The density of an electron-hole pair in a pure germanium is $3 \times 10^{16} \ m^{-3}$ at room temperature. On doping with aluminium,the hole density increases to $4.5 \times 10^{22} \ m^{-3}$. Now,the electron density (in $m^{-3}$) in doped germanium is:
