The positive charges are usually referred to as holes, as they are really "deficit" in the negative charge distribution. The semiconduction material (usually silicon with Er = 11 or gallium arsenide with e, impurities are added. Initially, the physically important region on the p side contains a density p+ of positive charges per unit volume, whereas the n region contains a negative charge density p-. When they are brought in contact, a static equilibrium follows in which a surplus of negative charges will accumulate in the (thin) p region, and a surplus of positive charges will accumulate in the (much thicker) n region. These two layers produce an electric field similar to that of a capacitor with infinite parallel plates. In equilibrium, the total number of positive charges in the n region is equal to the number of…arrow_forward
