See the answer below.

Work Step by Step

p-type: Doping a Group 4A element with a Group 3A creates an acceptor energy level between the valence band and the conduction band, which can accept electrons from the former. n-type: Doping a Group 4A element with a Group 5A creates a donor energy level between the valence band and the conduction band, which can donate electrons to the latter. a) Ge (4A) with As (5A): n-type b) Si (4A) with P (5A): n-type c) Ge (4A) with In (5A): n-type d) Ge (4A) with Sb (5A): n-type
