Avalanche breakdown in a `PN` junction diode is toA. shift of fermi levelB. widening of forbidden gapC. high impurity concentrationD. commulative effect of conduction band electrons collision

Answer» Correct Answer - D
At a particular value of reverse bias voltage, the covalent bonds near the junction break, so electron-hole pairs get liberated, this process rapidly multiplies and an avalanche of electron-hole pairs is produced.
