THIS CONTENT IS PROTECTED AND MAY NOT BE SHARED, UPLOADED, SOLD, OR DISTRIBUTED As shоwn in the figure belоw, yоu аre given а p-type silicon semiconductor which is illuminаted at its edge at x=0. The doping is uniform with a concentration of Na = [x] x 1016 cm-3. Light at x = 0 generates excess carriers which in steady-state conditions are

The device dissipates power which generates heat, thus heating the silicon crystal to a temperature of T = [T0] °K. Use: m*n = 1.08 m0, m*p = 0.56 m0, Egap = 1.12 eV = Ec with Ev = 0 as the reference, and m0 is the free electron mass = 9.11 x 10-31 kg. Assume Boltzmann statistics applies and work only on the n-type or the p-type region; no need to work on both. For the region you select, do the following:   (a) Find the intrinsic Fermi level EFi                                                             2 pts (b) Find the intrinsic carrier concentration ni = pi                                      2 pts (c) Find EF - Ev                                                                                               2 pts (d) Find Ec - EF                                                                                               2 pts (e) Calculate the respective minority carrier concentrations n0 or p0      2 pts
