Correct Answer

Phosphorous
Details icon
Detailed Explanation

Aluminium is not suitable for doping group 14 semiconductors.

Silicon is a group 14 element and is not suitable for doping itself for the purpose of converting it into an n-type semiconductor.

Gallium is a group 13 element and is not suitable for doping group 14 semiconductors.

Phosphorous is a group 15 element and has five valence electrons, making it suitable for doping group 14 semiconductors to create an n-type semiconductor.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

  1. Phosphorous.
