1.	In Fig . `V_(0)` is the potential barrier across a p-n junction, when no battery is connected across the junction A. 1 and 3 both correspond to forward bias of junctionB. 3 corresponds to forward bias of junction and 1 corresponds to reverse bias of junctionC. 1 corresponds to forward bias and 3 corresponds to reverse bias of junctionD. 3 and 1 both correspond to reverse bias of junction
Answer» Correct Answer - B When p-n junction is forward biased, it opposes the potential barrier across junction. When p-n junction is reverse biased, it supports the potential barrier junction, resulting increase in potential barrier across the junction.
