When a forward bias is applied to a p - n junction, it(a) Raises the potential barrier.(b) Reduces the majority carrier current to zero.(c) Lowers the potential barrier.(d) None of the above. |
|
Answer» The answer is (C) Lowers the potential barrier. When a p-n junction is forward biased, the applied voltage opposes the barrier voltage across the junction. As a result, the potential barrier gets lowered. |
