In pure silicon at $300 \ K$ temperature,the concentration of electrons $n_e$ and holes $n_h$ is $1.5 \times 10^{16} \ m^{-3}$. By doping with Indium,$n_h$ is increased to $4.5 \times 10^{22} \ m^{-3}$. Calculate the concentration of electrons $n_e$ in the doped silicon.

  • A
    $5 \times 10^9 \ m^{-3}$

    $3 \times 10^9 \ m^{-3}$
  • C
    $1.9 \times 10^{12} \ m^{-3}$
  • D
    $6.8 \times 10^8 \ m^{-3}$
