WHAT DOES EXTRINSIC SEMICONDUCTOR MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Extrinsic semiconductor

An extrinsic semiconductor is a semiconductor that has been doped, that is, into which a doping agent has been introduced, giving it different electrical properties than the intrinsic semiconductor. Doping involves adding dopant atoms to an intrinsic semiconductor, which changes the electron and hole carrier concentrations of the semiconductor at thermal equilibrium. Dominant carrier concentrations in an extrinsic semiconductor classify it as either an n-type or p-type semiconductor. The electrical properties of extrinsic semiconductors make them essential components of many electronic devices.

Definition of extrinsic semiconductor in the English dictionary

The definition of extrinsic semiconductor in the dictionary is a semiconductor into which a doping agent has been introduced, giving it different electrical properties than the intrinsic semiconductor.
