    Let \[{{n}_{p}}\] and \[{{n}_{e}}\] be the number of holes and conduction electrons in an extrinsic semiconductor. Then

    A)  \[{{n}_{p}}>{{n}_{e}}.\]       

    B)  \[{{n}_{p}}={{n}_{e}}.\]

    C)  \[{{n}_{p}}<{{n}_{e}}.\]       

    D)  \[{{n}_{p}}\ne {{n}_{e}}.\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] In extrinsic semiconductor the number of holes are not equal to number of electrons i.e., \[{{n}_{p}}\ne {{n}_{e}}\] In P ? type         \[{{n}_{p}}>{{n}_{e}}\] In N ? type        \[{{n}_{e}}>{{n}_{p}}\] But overall both P & N - type semi-Conductor ale-uncharged.
