Q. No bias is applied to a $P-N$ junction, then the current
Semiconductor Electronics: Materials Devices and Simple Circuits
A
Is zero because the number of charge carriers flowing on both sides is same
17%
B
Is zero because the charge carriers do not move
73%
C
Is non-zero
6%
D
None of these
4%
Solution:
In unbiased condition of $P N$ -junction, depletion region is generated which stops the movement of charge carriers.
