A \(Ge\) specimen is doped with \(Al\). The concentration of acceptor atoms is \(\sim10^{21}~\text{atoms/m}^3\). Given that the intrinsic concentration of electron hole pairs is \(\sim10^{19}/\text{m}^3\) the concentration of electrons in the specimen is:
1. \(10^{17} / \text{m}^3 \) 2. \(10^{15} / \text{m}^3 \)
3. \(10^4 / \text{m}^3 \) 4. \(10^2 / \text{m}^3\)
