Draw the energy band diagram at equilibrium for the p+ /n/p semiconductor heterostructure (p+ indicates a p-type semiconductor which is heavily doped, i.e., more heavily doped than p). You should indicate Ec (conduction band), Ev (valence band), Ei (intrinsic Fermi level), and Ef (Fermi level) throughout the device structure. show your work (i.e., you should start from the diagram of individual material pieces). State any reason for your drawing.
