There is a doubt i have with the bonding in a P type semiconductor.
It is said that for an atom to be stable there are needed 8e's in its valence shell.
In the case of a P type semiconductor there are 7.
What is the cause behind the trivalent atom forming bonds with the neighbouring silicon atoms, eventhough they don't have a stable calence electronic configuration.
