Q. The increase in the width of the depletion region in a p-n junction diode is due to :
NEET
NEET 2020
Semiconductor Electronics: Materials Devices and Simple Circuits
A
forward bias only
10%
B
reverse bias only
70%
C
both forward bias and reverse bias
15%
D
increase in forward current
5%
Solution:
In reverse bias, external battery attracts majority charge carriers
So, width of the depletion region increases
