    A p-type semiconductor has acceptor levels 57 MeV above the valence band. The maximum wavelength of light required to create a hole is

    A)  57 \[\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]                               

    B)  \[57\times {{10}^{-3}}\]\[\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]

    C)  217100 \[\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]      

    D)  \[11.61\times {{10}^{-33}}\]\[\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\] (Plancks constant \[h=6.6\times {{10}^{-34}}\]Js)

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    The energy of photon \[=\frac{hc}{\lambda },\]which should be equal to 57 MeV \[=57\times {{10}^{-3}}\times 1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}J\] Therefore, \[\lambda =\frac{6.6\times {{10}^{-34}}\times 3\times {{10}^{8}}}{57\times {{10}^{-3}}\times 1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}}\] \[=0.2171\times {{10}^{-4}}m\] \[=217100\,\overset{\text{o}}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,\]
