Which one of the following elements, when present as an impurity in silicon makes it a p-type semiconductor?
As
P
In
Sb
Point defects are present in
ionic solids
molecular solids
amorphous solids
liquids
A.
ionic solids
When deviation exist from the regular arrangement around an atom or a group of atoms in a crystalline substance, the defect are known as point defects. These are present in ionic solids only.
