Under the open-circuited conditions the net hole current must be zero. Is this statement is True or false?(a) True(b) FalseI had been asked this question in quiz.I would like to ask this question from Qualitative Theory of the p-n junction topic in chapter Semiconductor-Diode Characteristics of Electronic Devices & Circuits

Answer»

The correct ANSWER is (a) True

Easiest EXPLANATION: The net hole current is zero because if this wasn’t true, the hole DENSITY at one END of the semiconductor would continue to increase indefinitely with time, a situation which is obviously physically impossible.
