Donor doping lowers the hole count in Si because:
ADonors absorb holes chemically
BMore electrons raise recombination
CHoles escape out of the crystal
DThe crystal temperature falls
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. More electrons raise recombination
The extra electrons meet holes more often, so recombination removes holes faster than before.
