2. a) A) Find the number of atoms per square centimeter in silicon in the (100) (110) and (111) planes.
b) A unit cell of GaAs is shown as below. Calculate the density of GaAs (a=5.65 Angstrom, and the atomic weights of Ga and As are 69.72 and 74.92 g/mol, respectively).
c) How many valence electrons are in a tin atom? How many valence electrons are in a Ga atom and an As atom, respectively? A GaAs sample doped with tin. If the tin substitutes Ga atoms in crystal lattice, are donors or acceptors formed? Is the semiconductor n- or p-type?
2c The valence electrons in Ga =3, Sn=4, As=5
If GaAs is doped with tin then Ga as an acceptor dopant and tin Sn is a net donor.
It was observed that after doping it was changed from n-type semiconductor to p-type semiconductor.
