If a small amount of antimony is added to germanium crystal ………

Answer»

it BECOMES a p-type semiconductor.
the antimony becomes an acceptor atom.
there will be more free electron than holes in the semiconductor.
its RESISTANCE is increased.

Solution :there will be more free electron than holes in the semiconductor.
When a SMALL amount of antimony (pentavalent) is added to GERMANIUM crystal, it formed n-type of semiconductor so it has more number of free electrons than the holes.
