Q. Statement I: $V-i$ characteristic of $P-N$ junction diode is same as that of any other conductor.
Statement II: $P-N$ junction diode behaves as conductor at room temperature.

Semiconductor Electronics: Materials Devices and Simple Circuits

Solution:

The $V-i$ characteristic of $P N$ -diode depends whether the junction is forward biased or reverse biased. This can be showed by graph between voltage and current.
