Dopping and Purification of Silicon

This document discusses doping and purification of silicon. It provides background information on silicon, including its properties and common forms found in nature. It then defines doping in semiconductors as adding substances to modulate a semiconductor's electrical, optical, and structural properties. The document outlines different types of doping including n-type and p-type doping and how they affect the electronic band structure. It also mentions purification processes used to produce hyper-pure silicon grades such as zone refining.

SILICON:

• The second most abundant element in the earth’s crust


by mass, making up 25.7% of it.

• Metalloid and semiconductor.

• Rarely occurs as pure element in nature and more


widely appears as a compound.

• Most common form is silica.

• Discovered by Swedish Chemist Jons Jakob Berzelius


PROPERTIES OF SILICON:

• Symbol is Si and atomic number 14


• A hard and brittle.
• Blue grey metallic luster.
• Tetravalent metalloid.
• Melting point is 1687K
• Boiling point is 3538K
• Density is 2.32g/cm3
FLEROVIUM:
• Symbol is FI and atomic number is 114.
• It is named after the Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions of
the joint institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna, Russia.
• Discovered in 1998.
• Flerovium is a P-Block, Group 14, Period 7 element.
• Its atomic weight is 289.
WHAT IS DOPING?

  The use of a substance (such as an anabolic steroid or


serythropoietin) or technique (such as blood doping) to
illegally improve athletic performance. This is called as
doping.
 Why doping is used in semiconductors?
The process of adding substances to a pure semiconductor
for the purposes of modulating its ,optical and structural
properties is known as doping in semiconductors.
