In pure semiconductor, the number of conduction electrons is 6×1018 per cubic metre. How many holes are there in a sample of size 1cm×1cm×1 mm?
A
3×1010
B
6×1011
C
3×1011
D
6×1010
Answer
6×1011
Explanation
Solution
: here, ne=6×1018m−3
Volume of the sample
=1cm×1cm×1mm=10−7m3
Number of holes in the sample=
Number of electrons in the sample
}{= 6 \times 10^{18} \times 10^{- 7} }{6 \times 10^{11}}$$
