In semi-conductor terminology, doping is a process of: Correct Answer Increasing impurity percentage

  • Doping is a process of adding impurities in order to alter the properties of the semiconductor
  • Foreign atoms are added to increase the conductivity of a pure semiconductor
  • Addition of foreign atoms leads to a generation of extra charge carriers, which are holes in p-type semiconductor and electrons in an n-type semiconductor
