Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The gallium doped germanium is a p-type or an n-type semiconductor has to be predicted.

Concept-Introduction:

p-type semiconductor: A dopant with lesser electrons than its host forms a narrow band that gets electrons from valance band in which hole creates. These holes in valance band are mobile, and the substance is a p-type semiconductor

n-type semiconductor: A dopant with more electrons than its host forms a narrow band that donates electrons from valance band to conduction band. These electrons are mobile, and the substance is a n-type semiconductor
