Simple semiconductors
There are 2 types of main types of semiconductors; intrinsic and extrinsic semiconductors.
An intrinxic semiconductor is made of only one type of material mainly silicon. An extrinsic semiconductor is also made of
silicon but it is doped with a 1 or more elements meant to increase the electrical conductivity of the host material.
There are 2 main types of extrinsic semiconductors n- and p-type semiconductors. These are usually silicon doped with
antimony or boron create the desired type of conductor.
