14.8 Number of silicone atoms, nS = 5 *1028 / m3

Number of arsenic atoms, nA = 5 *1022 / m3

Number of indium atoms, nI = 5 *1020 / m3

Number of thermally generated atoms, ni = 1.5 *1016 / m3

Hence number of electrons, ne = 5 *1022- 1.5 *1016 = 4.99 *1022

Number of holes = nH

In thermal equilibrium, the concentration of electrons and holes in a semiconductor ar
