Which outcome occurs when a semiconductor’s dopant level increases to overwhelm stable electron orbitals?

💡 Explanation

Band gap narrowing becomes significant because increased dopant atoms create impurity bands that merge with the conduction and valence bands, effectively shrinking the gap, therefore increasing conductivity rather than altering recombination because the doping level determines this rather than generation rates.
