Which effect occurs when increasing dopant concentration in extrinsic semiconductors?

💡 Explanation

Band gap narrowing occurs because increased dopant concentration introduces statistically significant interactions between the dopant's quantum orbitals, causing distortions; therefore, the gap shrinks, rather than intrinsic carrier concentration decreasing, which would dominate at very low temperatures.
