It has an energy gap EG = [eg] eV, effective masses mn* = [mn1] m0 and mp* = [mp] m0, where m0 is the free electron mass = 9.11 x 10-31 kg. For 2 points calculate the position of the intrinsic Fermi level. For another 3 points find the electron and hole concentrations n0 and p0 when EC – EF = [ecf] eV. Constants:   kb = 1.38 x 10-23 J/°K;           q = 1.602 x 10-19 C; h = 6.626 x 10-34 J-s;
