The word "doping" refers to the introduction of impurities into a semiconductor in order to change its electrical properties. One common method of doping is to introduce impurities such as phosphorus or arsenic, which have extra electrons. These extra electrons can move freely within the crystal lattice, creating an excess of negative charge carriers and making the semiconductor n-type (i.e. with a negative charge). This greatly increases its intrinsic conductivity.
