In an experiment, the saturation in the plate current in a diode is observed at 240 V. But a student still wants to increase the plate current. It can be done if the : (a) filament current is increased (b) filament current is decreased (c) plate voltage is decreased (d) plate voltage is increaed further

To increase the plate current further the filament current should be increaed, so that more electrons are produced.</span></span></p>
