When a forward bias is applied to a p -n junction. ItA. raises the potential barrier.B. reduces the majority carrier current to zero.C. lowers the potential barrier.D. None of the above. |

Answer» The correct statement is (c). When a forward bias is applied to a p-n junction, it lowers the value of potential barrier. In the case of a forward bias, the potential barrier opposes the applied voltage. Hence, the potential barrier across the junction gets reduced. |
