Sheet #1
1. A flat aluminum strip has a resistivity of 3.44x10-8 Ω m, a cross-sectional area of
2x10-4 mm2, and a length of 5mm. what is the voltage drop across the strip for a
current of 50 m A?

2. The resistance of no.18 copper wire (diameter= 1.03mm) is 6.5 ohms per 1000 ft.
The concentration of free electrons in copper is 8.4x1028 electrons/m3. If the
current is 2A, find the followings:
(a) Drift velocity (b) Conductivity (c) Mobility (1 ft. = 0.3 m)

3. A specimen of silicon is 4cm long and has a square cross section 2x2mm. the
current is due to electrons whose mobility is 1300 cm2/v. Two volts impressed
across the bar results in a current of 8mA.
(a) Calculate the concentration n of free electrons.
(b) The drift velocity.

4. Show that the resistivity of intrinsic germanium at 300ok is 45 ohm.cm, and also
find the resistivity of intrinsic silicon at 300ok.

5. (a) Determine the concentration of free electrons and holes in a sample of


germanium at 300ok which has a concentration of donor atoms equal to 2x1014
atoms/cm3 and a concentration of acceptor atoms equal to 3x1014 atoms/cm3. Is
this p or n type germanium? In other words, is the conductivity due primarily to
holes or to electrons? (ni for Ge at 300ok = 2.5x1013 atoms/cm3).
(b) Repeat part a for equal donor and acceptor concentration of 1015 atoms/cm3 Is
this p or n type germanium?
(c) Repeat part a for a donor concentration of 1016 atoms/cm3 and an acceptor
concentration 1014 atoms/cm3.

6. A sample of germanium is doped to the extent of 2x1014 donor atoms/cm3 and


3x1014 acceptor atoms/cm3 at the temperature of the sample the resistivity of pure
(intrinsic) germanium is 60 ohms.cm. Assume that value of the mobility of holes
and electrons is approximately the same as at 300ok (μp=1800cm2/v.s and μn=
3800cm2/v.s) If the applied electric field intensity is 2v/cm, find the total
conduction current density.
