In a p-type semiconductor, the majority charge carriers and the minority charge carriers are respectively:

Question

Team JKSSB Mock Tests · Accepted Answer

A p-type semiconductor is created by doping a pure semiconductor (like Silicon) with a trivalent impurity (like Boron). This creates a deficiency of one electron, creating a 'hole'. These positive holes vastly outnumber the thermally generated free electrons. Thus, holes are the majority charge carriers, and electrons are the minority charge carriers.
