Can someone explain B and the last question? (Explain any difference in magnitudes of intrinsic densities calculated in A, B, C).
Question 1:
a) Calculate the intrinsic carrier density of silicon by using Equation (3.25):
ni = 2(mm^3/e-2k * 0.752 * 2 * 10^21 * 21 * 10^2 * i = e
b) Calculate the intrinsic density of electrons in silicon by using Eq. (3.18):
Ec - EF = n * e * kT / hik
n = 322 * 10^10
c) Calculate the intrinsic density of electrons in silicon by using Eq. (3.22):
Ec - Ev = np = Nc * Ny * e * kT
np = 3.22 * 10^10 * 1.05 * 10^19
Explain any difference in the magnitudes of intrinsic densities calculated in a), b), and c). (Weight of Question is 45%)
