What is the difference between n-type semiconductor and p-type semiconductor?
n-type is doped to have extra free electrons (negative carriers); p-type is doped to have holes (positive carriers).
n-type is doped to have extra free electrons (negative carriers); p-type is doped to have holes (positive carriers). A reliable way to keep them apart is to focus on what each one is defined by, not just the similar-sounding words.
