Answer: Option D
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Aluminium is an acceptor atom, an impurity atom in a semiconductor, which can accept or take up one or more electrons from the crystal and become negatively charged.In semiconductor physics. It is a dopant atom that when added to a semiconductor can form a p-type region. For example, when silicon (Si), having four valence electrons, needs to be doped as a p-type semiconductor, elements from group III like boron (B) or aluminium (Al), having three valence electrons, can be used. The latter elements are also called trivalent impurities. Other trivalent dopants include indium (In) and gallium (Ga).Related Questions on Chemistry
