This is a significant drawback compared to silicon, which can be easily doped both n-type and p-type.
5.—Matthew Putman, Forbes, 6 Sep. 2024 Whether the doping is n-type or p-type depends simply on the direction of the gradient.—IEEE Spectrum, 30 Jan. 2024 So the n-type develops a positive voltage potential toward the hot side, while the p-type develops a negative voltage potential in the same direction.—Sid Assawaworrarit, IEEE Spectrum, 25 Nov. 2023 The interface between the p-type layer and the n-type slab created a junction just like the one found in a diode: Essentially, the junction is a barrier that allows current to flow easily in only one direction, toward lower voltage.—IEEE Spectrum, 20 Nov. 2022 This means constructing both n-type and p-type sources and drains by epitaxy—crystal deposition—and adding different metal gates for the two transistors.—Marko Radosavljevic, IEEE Spectrum, 11 Aug. 2022
