Date of experiment- 24.01.18

Submitted by-
Ankit Anand (2014B5A30672G)

AIM: (i) Determining the carrier concentration of the given sample.


(ii) Determining the type of majority carrier (electron / hole).

APPARATUS:​ Electromagnet with power supply, Sample, Sample current source,


Voltmeter, Gaussmeter.

FORMULAE USED:

OBSERVATION AND CALCULATIONS:


Film thickness (d) = 500 nm
Fixed current (I) = 5 mA
S.no Applied magnetic Measured Hall Voltage(mV) Actual Hall
field (G) Voltage

(+I,+B) (-I,+B) (+I,-B) (-I,-B)

1 100 -135.3 136.7 -132.6 134.2 134.7

2 150 -136 137.1 -128.9 130 133

3 200 -140.9 142.4 -125.4 126.7 133.85

4 250 -143 142.7 -126.2 126.1 134.5

5 300 -144.5 144.3 -124.6 124.5 134.475

R​H​=-0.0021*(d/I)= -2.1x10​-7
Charge Concentration = -1/( R​H​e)
= 2.97 x 10​25​ electrons/ m​3

CONCLUSION:
The majority charge carriers are electron and its concentration is 2.97 x 10​25​ electrons/
m​3​.
