P Type Semiconductors

When the trivalent impurity atoms like aluminium (Al), boron (B), indium (In) and gallium (Ga) having three valence electrons are added to silicon,after forming covalent bond one hole remains in silicon which need fourth electrons.As much as impurities atoms added more holes are produced called majority carriers.
The number of holes can be controled by impurites atoms added to silicon.The majority of current carriers is P-type material.There are also some free electrons produced when electron holes are thermally treated.These electrons are the minority carriers in p-type material.
