Q. To get a $n$-type semiconductor from silicon, it should be doped with a substance with valency________.

The Solid State

Solution:

To get a $n$-type semiconductor from silicon, it should be doped with a substance with valence $5$.
e.g., $Si$ doped with $P$ lead to formation of $n$-type semiconductor.
