Germanium is doped with one part per million with indium at room temperature. Calculate the conductivity of doped germanium. Given concentration of Ge atoms = 4.4 * 10 ^ 28 per metre cube. Intrinsic carrier concentration = 2.4 * 10 ^ 19 per metre cube. Mobility of electron and holes are 0.39 metre square per volt per second and 0.19 metre square per volt per second respectively.
