Explanation

To make germanium a N-type semiconductor, we need to introduce a pentavalent impurity atom, such as antimony (Sb), arsenic (As), or phosphorus (P). These impurity atoms have five valence electrons, one more than germanium's four. This extra electron is weakly bound and can move freely, contributing to electrical conductivity.

Silicon is a semiconductor. If a small amount of As is added to it, then its electrical conductivity
