Which of the following is used to create a p-n junction? (2020)
Step 1: Understand what a p-n junction is. It is a boundary between two types of semiconductor materials: p-type and n-type.
Step 2: Know that p-type semiconductors are created by adding certain impurities (called dopants) that have fewer electrons than the semiconductor material.
Step 3: Understand that n-type semiconductors are created by adding different impurities that have more electrons than the semiconductor material.
Step 4: Learn that the process of adding these impurities to create p-type and n-type semiconductors is called doping.
Step 5: Realize that when you combine p-type and n-type materials, you form a p-n junction.
