Question

For a doped semiconductor, the rate of recombination of holes and electrons increases due to an increase in the number of majority carriers. This concept helps to maintain:

Professor PC Thomas Classes · Answer

At thermal equilibrium, the mass action law applies to both intrinsic and extrinsic semiconductors, such that the product of majority and minority carrier concentrations equals the square of the intrinsic concentration ($n_en_h=n_i^2$).
