The density of electron-hole pair in a pure germanium is3×1016  m-3at room temperature. On doping with aluminium, the hole density increases to4.5×1022  m-3.Now, the electron densityin  m-3in doped germanium will be

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

ni=3×1016 m-3

nh=4.5×1022 m-3

ne=?

nenh=ni2

  ne=ni2nh=3×101624.5×1022=9×10324.5×1022=2×1010
