a) To determine the number of charge carriers per cubic meter of the n-type semiconductor, we need to calculate the increase in the number of conducting electrons.Given that the intrinsic semiconductor has conducting electrons per cubic meter, and the doping results in a increase in the number of conducting electrons, we can calculate the number of charge carriers in the n-type semiconductor as follows:Number of charge carriers = Initial number of conducting electrons + Increase in number of conducting electronsNumber of charge carriers = + Number of charge carriers = + Number of charge carriers = Therefore, the number of charge carriers per cubic meter of the n-type semiconductor is .b) To determine the number of charge carriers contained in a specific volume of the new material, we need to calculate the volume in cubic meters and then multiply it by the number of charge carriers per cubic meter.Given the dimensions of the material as , we can convert these values to meters and calculate the volume:Volume = Length x Width x HeightVolume = Volume = Now, we can calculate the number of charge carriers contained in this volume:Number of charge carriers = Number of charge carriers per cubic meter x VolumeNumber of charge carriers = Number of charge carriers = Therefore, the number of charge carriers contained in of the new material is .
