Consider a silicon crystal doped with 10^16 cm-3 Boron. Due to contamination, this crystal also contains deep level traps with an energy level in the middle of the Si bandgap (In other words, Etrap=Ei) and concentration 10^15 cm-3 . These traps can either act like donors or acceptors. At T=300K, determine if the traps are acting as donors or acceptors. Also determine the position of the Fermi level (EF).
