A piece of silicon is p-type with a uniform acceptor doping concentration of NA = 3.0e+16 cm-3.
The hole mobility is μp = 355 cm2/V·s.
What are the conductivity and resistivity of this silicon?

A rectangular resistor is made in this silicon.
The resistor dimension are: W = 7 μm, L = 0.14 mm, t = 1.75 μm.
What is the resistance of the resistor?
