EXAMPLE 4.13 Objective: Determine the Fermi energy level and the maximum doping concentration at which the Boltzmann approximation is still valid. Consider p-type silicon, at T = 300 K, doped with boron. We may assume that the limit of the Boltzmann approximation occurs when Er - E. = 3KT. (See Section 4.1.2.)
