(a) Schematic representation of -type doping mechanism. The molecular dopant acts as acceptor in -type dopant. The energetic overlap of matrix and dopant energy levels is important. (b) Schematic drawing of -type doping mechanism. The molecular dopant acts as donor in -type doping. The energetic overlap of matrix and dopant energy levels is necessary.
