Donor
group five elements in the periodic table such as phosphorus, arsenic and antimony have one more electron in the outer most energy level than silicon. When these atoms are introduced into silicon, an impurity level is created very near the conduction band. At zero degrees Kelvin the impurity level is filled, at room temperature sufficient energy is available to excite electrons from the impurity level into the conduction band. Because these elements introduce impurity levels that donate electrons they are referred to as donors.
