In
-type semiconductor, electrons are majority charge carriers but it does not show any negative charge. The reason is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
The n-type semiconductor region has (negative) electrons as majority charge carriers and an equal number of fixed positively charged donor ions. Again, the material as a whole is neutral. That is a reason, that atom is electrically neutral.
