Sl No  P-type Semi conductor  N-type semi conductor
 1 P-type semiconductor is formed due to the dopping of III group elements i.e. Boron, Aluminium, Thallium. N-type semi conductor is formed due to dopping of Nitrogen, Phosporus, Arsenic, Antimony, Bismoth.
 2 These are also known as Trivalent semi conductors. These are also known pentavalent semiconductor.
 3 P-type semiconductors is positive type semiconductor it means it deficiency of 1 electron is required. N-type semiconductor is negative type semi-conductor it means excess of 1 electron is required.
 4 In P-type semiconductor majority charge carries are holes and minority charge carries are electrons. In N-type semiconductor majority charge carries are electrons and minority charge carries are hole.
 5 A hole indicates a missing electron. In this no. of holes is more than the no. of electrons. In N-type semiconductor the no. of holes is less than the no. of free electron.
